Making a difference in the lives of children and families throughout Long Island - Ben M - Benjamin M
Support from Grand Prix Subaru and South Shore Subaru empowers Cohen Children's Medical Center to make a difference in the lives of children and families throughout Long Island. Throughout the years, this important partnership has helped to realize new breakthroughs in pediatric cancer research, address food insecurity, and expand access to high-quality mental health services to meet the needs of children, adolescents, and parents. During the past year, Subaru of America's generous donation helped support Northwell Health's School Mental Health Partnership, an initiative designed to increase access to mental health services for children and adolescents across Long Island. Katie Prudenti, a high school assistant principal, was already familiar with the School Mental Health Partnership, having connected many students to it for support. When her own son, Austin, began to exhibit significant anxiety and anger by age 11, severely disrupting his everyday life and school performance, she sought help and reached out to the program. As a result of the care the family received, Austin reports feeling "way better, less angry, and more confident." Katie shared that the program alleviated the stress on her family during their crisis, and made a tremendous difference when it was most needed. She now uses her personal experience to help other families navigate the process of getting the support they need. We are grateful to Grand Prix Subaru and South Shore Subaru for making stories like this possible, and helping to ensure that children and families throughout Long Island have access to the highest quality of life-changing care.
A Gift of Warmth for Our Littles - Fabiola T
Imagine facing a Long Island winter without a coat — no extra layer, no protection from the cold, just hoping to stay warm. For many children experiencing hardship in our community, this is a very real challenge. That's why BBBSLI was incredibly grateful to partner with Grand Prix Subaru and Operation Warm, a national nonprofit dedicated to providing children with essential resources to help them thrive. On January 15, 2026, Grand Prix Subaru generously donated 300 brand-new coats to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Long Island in Westbury, NY. These coats do far more than protect children from the cold. A warm coat brings comfort, confidence, and dignity. It allows a child to walk into school feeling secure, participate in outdoor activities without hesitation, and focus on learning instead of worrying about the weather. At Big Brothers Big Sisters of Long Island, we see firsthand how meeting a basic need can have a meaningful impact on a child's mental and emotional well-being. We are deeply grateful for this generous gift, which will help so many of our Littles stay warm, feel supported, and know that their community cares about them.

Planting trees for the community - CLINTON D
At Grand Prix Subaru, we care deeply about our community and are committed to keeping our neighborhoods vibrant and healthy now and for generations to come. Trees are vital to this effort — they provide oxygen, cool our community, filter water, clean the air, prevent flooding, and improve health. But every year, our community loses trees due to age, disease, infestation, and extreme weather. Subaru and retailers like us are proud to partner with the Arbor Day Foundation to help address this problem. This spring as part of our Subaru Loves the Earth initiative, Grand Prix Subaru provided and distributed 100 of mature, regionally appropriate trees that will benefit communities for generations. This year alone, Subaru and its retailers provided and distributed 100,000 trees to communities across the country. Through this new partnership and other initiatives, Subaru and retailers like us have helped distribute and plant over 1.1 million trees so far — and this is just the beginning. Together, we are growing a greener, healthier Hicksville for generations to come.

Building Self-Esteem, One Coat at a Time - Fabiola T
When Maria moved to Nassau County with her three children, she carried more than just their belongings; she carried the weight of uncertainty. Recently unemployed and staying with friends, Maria had to stretch every dollar to cover essentials, leaving little room for extras like winter coats. With the cold months fast approaching, she worried about how her children, ages 4, 6, and 12 would manage. In previous years, they had to wear coats that didn’t fit properly, and Maria’s heart broke hearing how her older kids were teased at school. Hope came in the form of a recommendation from Maria’s caseworker, who told her about Big Brothers Big Sisters of Long Island’s Subaru Winter Coat Giveaway event. Nervous but hopeful, Maria attended, unsure of what to expect. Her nerves turned to joy when she discovered racks of brand-new coats in every size and color. Volunteers greeted her family warmly and helped the children choose coats they loved. For the first time in three years, Maria’s children had coats that were not only warm but also fit them perfectly. Her 12-year-old daughter beamed as she picked a stylish pink coat, while her 6-year-old son proudly chose a black jacket with tan accents. Even her youngest felt special, twirling in his new puffy green coat. Maria couldn’t help but shed tears of gratitude as she saw their smiles. “This means the world to us,” Maria said, her voice trembling with emotion. “For years, I worried about my kids being teased for wearing things that didn’t fit or weren’t in good shape. Now, they can walk into school feeling confident and proud.” The coats not only kept the children warm but also gave them a boost in self-esteem. Maria’s 6 and 12-year-olds, who had struggled with teasing in the past, were excited to show off their new jackets. They eagerly shared stories with Maria about their friends complimenting their new looks. Thanks to Subaru’s Love Promise and the dedicated team at BBBSLI, Maria and her children could face the winter with warmth in their hearts and smiles on their faces. For Maria, it was more than just a coat—it was a symbol of kindness, hope, and a fresh start.
