This holiday season, Meals on Wheels of the Monterey Peninsula (MOWMP) is proud to participate in the Subaru Share the Love® Event, joining a nationwide effort to ensure older adults are not left hungry or isolated during the most meaningful time of year.
We’re honored to stand alongside Meals on Wheels America as one of Subaru’s national charity partners—continuing a powerful partnership that has already helped deliver millions of meals to seniors across the country.
What Is the Subaru Share the Love® Event?
From November 20, 2025 through January 2, 2026, Subaru and its participating retailers will donate a minimum of $300 to charity for every new Subaru vehicle sold or leased. Customers can choose from four national charity partners:
-
Meals on Wheels America
-
ASPCA
-
Make-A-Wish
-
National Park Foundation
When you select Meals on Wheels America as your charity of choice, you’re helping fuel meal delivery, friendly visits, and critical safety checks for seniors nationwide—including right here in Monterey County.
A Partnership That Delivers Real Impact
The Subaru–Meals on Wheels partnership is now in its 18th consecutive year, and the results are truly remarkable:
-
18 years of partnership
-
Nearly 5 million meals delivered
-
More than $34 million contributed to support seniors
Every Subaru purchased or leased during the Share the Love Event helps keep older adults nourished, connected, and living independently with dignity.
Why This Matters for Seniors
Across the country, 1 in 3 seniors lives alone, and millions face hunger and isolation. For many of the neighbors we serve at MOWMP, a Meals on Wheels visit is more than just a warm, nutritious meal—it may be the only friendly face and conversation they experience all day.
With only 1% of all philanthropic giving dedicated to senior causes, opportunities like the Subaru Share the Love Event are more important than ever. The funds raised help support:
-
Nutritious meal delivery
-
Friendly wellness visits and safety checks
-
Volunteers and staff who keep seniors connected year-round
How You Can Share the Love
Making a difference is easy—and it starts with three simple steps:
-
Visit a participating Subaru retailer between November 20 and January 2
-
Purchase or lease a new Subaru vehicle
-
Select “Meals on Wheels America” as your charity of choice
Subaru will donate on your behalf, creating a direct and lasting impact for seniors who rely on Meals on Wheels.
Together, We Keep the Wheels Turning
This holiday season, your choice can help ensure that no senior feels forgotten. By sharing the love through Subaru, you’re helping Meals on Wheels of the Monterey Peninsula continue delivering meals, care, and connection to our most vulnerable neighbors—today and throughout the year.
