Because They Deserve More Than A Patch of Grass
Manage episode 494053836 series 2988189
Episode #1093: We know that everyone here is actually to listen to Chris Reeves on this Saturday morning. After a delightful segue about incense, smoke and fire drills in elementary school, we get into the story of St. Cloud Subaru.
At Place of Hope shelter in St. Cloud, Minnesota, nearly 40 children had no place to play. Just a patch of grass across the street and a basketball court. St. Cloud Subaru noticed and jumped into action.
After years of supporting the shelter through Subaru’s Share the Love program, the dealership staff realized something simple was missing. So they raised $10K, partnered with a local playground company, and spent last Friday afternoon installing the new play-set themselves. The dealership also presented a $95K check to the Greater St. Cloud Public Safety Foundation, funding neighborhood-based community outposts that connect residents to local resources.
Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.
