Love Promise Stories from Butte Subaru
Subaru and Butte Subaru believe in making a positive impact on the communities in which we live and work. We uphold that belief through our Love Promise Community Commitment. Every month, we select inspiring stories from customers and partners from around our area who strive to support our collective commitment and feature them here
100 New Trees for the Butte Community - Karlie S
This year, Butte Subaru participated in Subaru Loves the Earth by partnering with the Arbor Day Foundation to bring 100 new trees to the Butte community. Customers who visited us during the event were invited to take home a tree of their own, a small but lasting way to give back to the place we all call home. Every tree planted means cleaner air, more shade, and a greener Butte for years to come. It's one more way Butte Subaru is living out the Love Promise, not just talking about caring for the planet, but putting roots down and growing something the whole community can enjoy.
Butte Subaru Invests in Emerson Elementary's Classrooms - Mark J
Butte Subaru made a monetary donation to Emerson Elementary School to directly support six classrooms, reaching up to 130 students in need. The gift helps ensure teachers and students have the resources they need to learn and grow, right in our own backyard. For Butte Subaru, supporting education isn't a one-time gesture; it's part of a Love Promise commitment to giving local kids every opportunity to succeed. We're grateful to partner with Emerson Elementary and proud to invest in Butte's next generation.
Butte Subaru Delivers Care to St. James Cancer Center - Ben G
As part of the Subaru Loves to Care initiative, Butte Subaru partnered with St. James Cancer Center to deliver 30 comfort kits to patients and staff. Each bag was packed with small but meaningful items: a soft heart-shaped pillow, an embroidered "Subaru Loves to Care" pair of socks, a water bottle, coloring supplies, and an activity book, plus resources from Blood Cancer United to help patients and families feel less alone during treatment. The nursing team at St. James welcomed the kits with open arms, and it was a reminder that showing up for the community means more than donation; it means putting comfort directly into the hands of people going through some of their hardest days. Butte Subaru is proud to keep the Love Promise alive right here in Butte, one care kit at a time.
Giving a Special Gift - Briara J
Our agency receiving coats put a smile on a Big Sister's face. Ida, a local RN had joy in her heart when she picked up a coat for her little sister. With her little, Elora attending Ramsey elementary school, we were informed of their need for coats. It was our pleasure to share this gift with Ramsey Elementary and delivered some coats to students there as well. Thank you for this incredible gift we will continue to share with our littles and youth who need them.
Helping Families In Need - Ben G
When the government shutdown temporarily halted assistance programs, many families in the Butte area were left wondering how they would make ends meet. At Butte Subaru, supporting our community isn't just something we talk about—it's something we act on. We partnered with Mom What's Next – Butte to host a Community Meal Share, providing simple, ready-to-use meal kits for families impacted by the shutdown. Our team came together to assemble the kits by hand, ensuring each one was packed with care and delivered with dignity. During a time of uncertainty, these meals helped fill an immediate need and reminded families that their community was still standing with them. We're proud of our team for stepping up and grateful for the opportunity to live out the Subaru Love Promise right here in Butte—by helping our neighbors when they need it most.
Paws, Purpose, and Community! - Ben G
There were plenty of happy tails and grateful paws at Chelsea Baily Animal Shelter when Butte Subaru stopped by for this year’s Subaru Loves Pets event. Butte Subaru proudly selected Chelsea Baily Animal Shelter as their 2025 recipient and delivered a generous supply of much-needed pet supplies. Items like toys, bedding, and enrichment materials play a vital role in reducing anxiety and stress for shelter animals, but they require frequent replacement to meet safety and health standards. Because shelters like Chelsea Baily rely heavily on community support, donations like these make a meaningful impact. It’s an honor for Chelsea Baily Animal Shelter to be chosen as this year’s Subaru Loves Pets partner and to feel the continued support from Butte Subaru and the Subaru family.
Sharing Warmth and Hope with Cancer Patients at St. James - Ben G
At Butte Subaru, supporting our community means standing beside the people who need it most. We were honored to partner with Subaru of America, Inc. and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to bring comfort and care to the patients and caregivers at St. James Community Cancer Center right here in Butte. Our team delivered cozy blankets, care kits, and handwritten messages of hope—small gestures that make a big impact for those facing the challenges of cancer treatment. It was a powerful reminder that no one fights alone. We were humbled to meet the incredible caregivers, survivors, and fighters who inspire us every day. To everyone walking this journey: we see you, we support you, and we stand with you.
Butte Subaru Teams Up with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Butte Silver Bow to Support Local Community - Joshua S
Imagine going without a coat, shoes, or even socks. For millions of children and adults experiencing homelessness and other urgent need situations across the country, even here in Butte, this is a harsh reality. Helping others strengthens communities, which is why Butte Subaru is partnering with Operation Warm®, a national nonprofit focused on connecting children with the resources they need to thrive. Through this partnership and other Subaru Loves to Help® efforts, Subaru and retailers like Butte Subaru have helped nearly 900,000 children and adults in urgent need. On 01/14/2025, Butte Subaru donated 300 coats to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Butte Silver Bow. These essential items not only help keep children protected, warm, and dry, it can have a significant impact on a child's mental and emotional well-being.
Taking Community Action - Brooklyn S
Action Inc is a local organization in Butte Montana focused on providing the tools needed for impoverished individuals and families to economically succeed. Action Inc provides local housing assistance, heat assistance, youth empowerment through mentorships and training, head start school program for littles, and food/nutrition assistance. This year, Butte Subaru partnered with Action Inc to supply coats to local children in need. Butte winters average a low of five degrees; no child should be without a coat, but the cost of living leads many families struggling to afford coats for their children. This is why a coat donation is an amazing way to positively impact the local community and why Action Inc and Butte Subaru made this their first event of the year.
Subaru Loves Learning - Brooklyn S
In support of Emerson Elementary School, Butte Subaru generously donated funds through their Subaru Loves Learning Event this year. Donations like this make a significant difference in supporting local education and teachers. Unfortunately, many teachers end up using personal funds to ensure their classes have enough learning and cleaning supplies. Having enough learning supplies aids children from lower economic situations by preventing their peers from singling them out thereby lowering incidences of bullying and depression. Other supplies such as Clorox wipes, hand sanitizer, and tissues is also important to create a safe learning environment and help prevent school absences due to sickness. Subaru Loves Learning is a wonderful program and Emerson Elementary is grateful to have been chosen by Butte Subaru.
