Subaru of Wesley Chapel surprises teachers with back-to-school donation (PHOTOS)

Subaru of Wesley Chapel partnered with AdoptAClassroom.org to surprise teachers at Thomas E. Weightman Middle School with a $15,000 donation and 25 school supply kits, during a back-to-school celebration.

The retailer also provided a catered lunch for teachers to kick off the school year.

The donation was made as part of Subaru Loves Learning, a national program championed by Subaru of America. The program helps provide funding for teachers at high-needs schools across the country to purchase the school supplies and resources needed to help their students succeed.

Subaru of Wesley Chapel’s donation will benefit more than 1,240 students by providing teachers with $200 worth of funding, each to purchase supplies for the school year on the AdoptAClassroom.org Marketplace.

“We’re thrilled to support our local teachers and students through the Subaru Loves Learning initiative,” said Scott Fink, president and chief executive officer of Subaru of Wesley Chapel. “Providing essential school supplies is just one way we give back to our community throughout the year, and we are committed to making a lasting impact year-round through various initiatives that support the needs of our neighbors.”

As the largest corporate partner of AdoptAClassroom.org, Subaru, and its retailers, have supported more than 750,000 students, nationwide, through the Subaru Loves Learning initiative.
