Mark Miller Subaru is celebrating the Subaru Share The Love Event through January 4, 2021.

During this time, a $500 donation will be made to local charities for every new Subaru sold or leased at Mark Miller Subaru.

Mark Miller Subaru service customers can also participate in the Subaru Share The Love Event. All customers receiving service that includes a genuine Subaru oil filter part number will be included in a total donation of $5 that will support our local hometown charity partners.

Mark Miler Subaru General Manager and Chief Executive Officer says this year marks the 13th annual Subaru Share The Love Event, where at the end of the event Subaru and Subaru retailers will have donated more than $200 million to charities across the country.

Mark Miller Subaru South Towne is partnering with Fit to Recover and Spy Hop to "Re-Plant, Re-build, and Re-Connect our Community" with a goal of donating $225,000 to hometown charity partners to support growth in the local community.

Spy Hop is a digital media arts center offering in-school, after-school, youth-in-care, and satellite programming for students ages 9-19 of all skill levels and aspirations.

Spy Hop programs work to ensure that all youth have the support they need to explore, discover, and become a force for good in their communities during adolescence and as they transition to adulthood.

Spy Hop Executive Director Kasandra VerBrugghen says COVID-19 has really highlighted the tech gap among many families with the means to afford electronics.

During Share the Love, Spy Hop and Mark Miller Subaru are teaming up to raise enough money to provide 600 students with tuition and the necessary gear for them to connect with their community in virtual classes all year round.

You can help by donating your gently used laptops to Spy Hop today at Mark Miller Subaru South Towne. Just swing by and drop them in the collection bin.
