Subaru Loves Pets: Supporting Paws and Our Community - Meghan M
At Stocker Subaru, our commitment to the community includes helping animals find the care and loving homes they deserve. On October 14, 2026, we proudly hosted the 10th annual Pets Come First car raffle at our dealership, supporting animal rehabilitation and shelter expenses. The grand prize offered the choice of a new Subaru Crosstrek or $20,000 cash. Winner Joni Spearly chose the cash prize—and celebrated an unforgettable birthday! Prize raffles and a 50/50 raffle raised an additional $1,200 to support animals in need. The evening was even more special as one of the shelter's dogs found a loving home. Thank you to everyone who purchased tickets, attended, and donated. Your generosity helps Pets Come First continue making a difference for animals throughout our great, great community.

Stocker Subaru Helps Bring Comfort to Local Cancer Patients Through Subaru Loves to Care - Meghan M
At Stocker Subaru, supporting our community extends far beyond the showroom. Each year, we're proud to participate in the Subaru Loves to Care initiative, helping make a meaningful difference for patients receiving cancer treatment in our region. This summer, our team partnered with Mount Nittany Health to deliver comfort items and heartfelt messages to individuals undergoing cancer care. The visit was an opportunity to remind patients that they are supported by their community during every step of their journey. Through Subaru Loves to Care, retailers across the country work alongside healthcare organizations and national nonprofit partners to provide encouragement and practical items that can help make treatment a little more comfortable. We're honored to bring that mission to Centre County and support the incredible work being done by the care teams at Mount Nittany Health. Giving back has always been an important part of who we are. Whether it's supporting local organizations, participating in community events, or lending a helping hand when it's needed most, Stocker Subaru is committed to making a positive impact where we live and work. We extend our sincere thanks to the physicians, nurses, and staff at Mount Nittany Health for the compassionate care they provide every day. It was a privilege to partner with them and play a small role in bringing comfort and encouragement to patients receiving treatment. We look forward to continuing to support initiatives that strengthen our community and reflect the Subaru Love Promise, showing love and care to those who need it most.
