October is a Special Month at AWA - Sue B
We are so grateful to Miller Subaru and Subaru Love Promise for supporting AWA’s mission and helping to make the future bright and full of hope for so many animals. Thank you for being such an important part of our AWA family! Miller Subaru’s strong commitment in giving back to the community includes partnering with AWA and always makes October a special month. There is an AWA display located in their retail showroom sharing information about our programs and events with their customers, highlighting AWA adoptable pets (with adopted hearts posted by the Miller team), collecting much needed supplies for AWA and more. Beginning October 1st, Miller Subaru partnered with AWA to sponsor the adoption fees of 25 adoptable adult pets (11 dogs and 14 cats had their adoption fees waived!). At our community event, Howl-O-Ween, Miller Subaru supplied us with a 2025 Forester Hybrid to highlight Stuff the Subaru to encourage donations of pet food, supplies and toys. It was wonderful to see so many people bring donations as they attended our Howl-O-Ween event. As an additional part of our special October, AWA had a services showcase which shared information on AWA, our programs and how the community can be involved. This included volunteering with our Volunteer Coordinator attending and discussing the many volunteer opportunities we have for all ages starting with our junior volunteers. Misty, a sweet adoptable cat from AWA is being fostered by the Miller Subaru team, it is wonderful to see their enthusiasm in helping Misty to find her forever home. Thank you again, Miller Subaru for all that you do for the community and AWA!
AWA’s Roo-From the Texas floods to helping his new Mom heal and filling her life with love again! - Sue B
Roo (formerly known as Joop) came to the AWA after devastating floods in Texas displaced countless animals this past summer. Even though he was safe at AWA, life at the shelter was not easy for him; the noise and chaos made him anxious and stressed, which made it hard for potential adopters to see the sweet dog beneath all that worry. Roo’s Mom sharing about Roo: I gave him a chance and on his very first night in my house, Roo, finally found some peace. He slept deeply for nearly ten hours straight, likely for the first time in months. When Roo came into my life, I wasn’t completely sure I was ready for a new companion as I had recently lost my senior dog, but Roo connected with me. As it often goes, the best things happen when you least expect them. I knew Roo needed me and it turned out that I needed him too, so I am glad I took that chance on him. Now, Roo is my shadow. He follows me from room to room, always keeping me in sight. No trip to the bathroom or walk to the kitchen is ever unaccompanied anymore. He is a silly guy whose sole mission in life is to be as close to me as possible. Every night, he curls up beside me, sometimes under the covers, sometimes sprawling on his back with his paws in the air, but always making sure we are touching. Roo has filled my home, and my heart, with love again. He has helped me heal from loss by turning grief into something beautiful. This little dog means the world to me. Thank you to our amazing retail partner, Miller Subaru and the Subaru Loves Pets® Adoption Campaign which has given Roo and so many other sweet AWA pets an opportunity to thrive in a loving new home!
Zeus the Alpaca from Nash Hill Farms - Melissa T
At only six weeks old, Zeus became an orphan when his mom unexpectedly passed away. Without regular feedings, Zeus would have a hard time thriving and being able to survive. Miller Subaru welcomed baby Zeus with open arms. He has been enjoying his time here meeting customers, and being well fed. Zeus is from Nash Hill Farms, a partner of Miller Subaru. He is not the first baby alpaca to be taken care of when the need arises at the dealership. Since 2021, there have been various Alpaca visitors at Miller Subaru. The staff at Miller Subaru, especially Rose Principato, care for the baby alpaca and provide him with fresh hay, fresh water and milk from a bottle to help him thrive. Soon he will be big enough to need less feedings and can stay with his herd.

Thank you, Miller Subaru, for donating a dozen trees to the Hainesport Twp Environmental Commission! - Ken M
Knowing that Subaru and specifically Miller Subaru, supports the Arbor Day Foundation is another indication that Subaru loves the earth and we appreciate it in Hainesport! The Hainesport Township Environmental Commissision (HTEC) has established an Arbor Walk which follows the perimeter of the Municipal grounds primarily along Deacon Road. The Arbor walk has a variety of trees selected to showcase those which are either native to our area or ones which provide year-round interest. As you may know, besides the beauty and shade they provide, trees improve air quality by trapping particulate pollutants, providing oxygen and absorbing carbon. Also, trees reduce flooding by retaining stormwater and preventing erosion. Furthermore, trees provide habitat and food for birds and other wildlife. Our plan is to plant the beautiful trees you have so generously donated to us in and around this Arbor Walk in Hainesport! Thank you once again, Miller Subaru! Best regards, Ken Montgomery Hainesport Township Committeeman and Member Hainesport Township Environmental Commission Hainesport Township celebrates 100 years! 1924-2024

Miller Subaru Partners with Animal Welfare Association - Brittany S
In a continued effort to support local animals, Miller Subaru partnered with the Animal Welfare Association (AWA) as part of the Subaru Loves Pets® initiative, a month-long celebration dedicated to helping shelter pets find loving homes. Throughout October, Miller Subaru sponsored fee-waived adoptions for 25 pets, and provided a $4,000 grant to AWA, further supporting their mission to improve the lives of shelter animals. Building on this commitment, today Miller Subaru employees spent a day volunteering at the AWA shelter, participating in a hands-on day of service with an ice cream truck celebration, allowing staff, volunteers, and adopters to come together in support of shelter animals. In addition to the volunteer efforts, Miller Subaru is currently fostering an adoptable cat named Croissant from the shelter at its dealership, where customers can meet the cat and potentially provide a forever home. The partnership and grant are part of Subaru Loves Pets®, a national initiative championed by Subaru of America, Inc. Miller Subaru joins over 630 Subaru retailers nationwide, providing more than $3 million in critical funding to local animal shelters. These grants*, administered by the ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®), help cover costs like veterinary care and adoption preparation. “At Miller Subaru, giving back to our community is at the heart of everything we do, and that includes a strong commitment to helping local animals find loving homes,” said Melissa Miller, General Manager of Miller Subaru. “The Subaru Loves Pets initiative is just one of the ways we contribute throughout the year, and we’re proud to partner with AWA each year to make a meaningful and lasting difference for both pets and people in our community.” According to the ASPCA, nearly 6.5 million animals entered shelters across the U.S. last year. To help address this need, Miller Subaru and AWA teamed up to encourage community members to consider adoption. The shelter also hosted a “Stuff the Subaru” challenge, collecting pet food and supply donations throughout the month in support of shelter animals in the area. "We are incredibly grateful for Miller Subaru's unwavering dedication to our community," said Laura Houston, Executive Director of AWA. "Our longstanding partnership has made a difference in the lives of countless animals in our area. Partnerships like these help us to find loving homes for these deserving pets, making a positive impact on both the animals and the community." Miller Subaru and AWA have partnered since 2011, with the retailer’s donations totaling more than $71,000 to date. This reflects the retailer’s commitment to the local community, which also includes partnerships with organizations like The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Legacy Treatment Services, and more.
