Each June, Subaru Loves to Care brings warmth and encouragement to patients facing cancer, and this year the spirit of giving is alive and well in the community. Subaru and its retailers have partnered with Blood Cancer United for over a decade to give warm blankets, patient care kits, and encouraging messages of hope to individuals living with cancer. Zeigler Subaru of Schererville is proud to participate in this heartfelt initiative with its own blanket drive.
Why Blankets in June?
It may seem unusual to donate blankets in the middle of summer, but there's a meaningful reason behind the timing. Cancer patients often get cold during treatment, regardless of the season. A soft, warm blanket offers physical comfort and serves as a reminder that someone cares. Beyond blankets, the broader program reflects Subaru's commitment to community wellness, partnering with local hospitals and treatment centers to support patients when they need it most.
How You Can Get Involved Locally
This year, Zeigler Subaru of Schererville is partnering with University of Chicago Comer Children's Hospital to deliver warm blankets directly to young patients in need. Customers are also invited to play a personal role in this community outreach effort. During your next visit, stop by the waiting area and fill out a "message of hope" — a handwritten note of encouragement that will be delivered straight to a patient at Comer Children's Hospital. It's a small gesture that can make a tremendous difference in someone's day.
Join Us in Making a Difference
The blanket drive is more than a donation. It's a way for the entire community to come together and show love to those facing a difficult journey. Whether you contribute a blanket or write a few words of hope, your participation helps brighten the lives of children undergoing treatment. Visit Zeigler Subaru of Schererville to take part in this meaningful tradition.
