Big Brothers Big Sisters partners with Freehold Subaru for ‘Share the Love’ event

Purchase a new Subaru by Jan. 2 and help make a big difference in a child’s life! Freehold Subaru has chosen Big Brothers Big Sisters of Monmouth & Middlesex Counties (BBBSMMC) for a second year as their hometown charity for the Annual “Share the Love” Event. For each car that is purchased, Freehold Subaru will donate $250 to BBBSMMC or one of four other national organizations selected by the purchaser. Last year, Subaru raised an astounding $15,000 to support and expand the 1:1 mentoring programs offered by BBBSMMC.

“Freehold Subaru chose Big Brothers Big Sisters as our hometown charity because we know how important mentoring is for children to be successful in school and in life. The agency depends on the local community to help spread the word about their programs and the need for more people to step up and become role models. We are happy to provide the opportunity to spread awareness and raise funds for this worthy organization,” stated General Manager Steve Boyce.

The public is invited to join Big Brothers Big Sisters’ staff and Bigs and Littles at the dealership located at 299 South St. in Freehold on Dec. 5 between 11a.m. and 1pm.. Visitors will enjoy free lunch, giveaways, and the opportunity to learn more about the mentoring organization. “We are grateful to Freehold Subaru for their support of our agency through the “Share the Love” event for a second year. This is a great opportunity to raise needed funds and awareness about our quality 1:1 mentoring programs for children facing challenges in their lives,” commented William Salcedo, executive director of BBBSMMC.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Monmouth & Middlesex Counties is a donor-supported, volunteer agency that is currently serving more than 650 children by providing them with caring mentors. The agency is funded by the community through individual gifts, grants and special events.
