At Dutchess Outreach, our mission has always been simple and steadfast; to ensure that our neighbors have access to basic needs and the dignity that comes with being cared for. Each winter, one of the most urgent needs we see is warmth, something no one should have to go without. For more than two decades, Mid-Hudson Subaru has understood that truth. Every year, long before winter fully sets in, their team opens their doors and their hearts by host ring a community coat drive. what began years ago as a simple act of kindness has grown into a trusted tradition. One the community look s forward to and depends on. This year's coat drive kicked off on November 7th and will continue through January 2nd, ensuring that families and individuals have access to warm coats throughout the coldest months. We are honored that Dutchess Outreach was chosen as a recipient of this year's donations. The coats collected through this drive will directly support individuals and families facing housing insecurity, financial hardship, and unexpected life challenges right here in Dutchess County. Each donated coat represents more than warmth, it represents compassion, dignity, and the reassurance that someone cares. What makes this partnership especially meaningful is the consistency behind it. For over twenty years, Mid-Hudson Subaru has shown up for their community, not for recognition, but because it's the right thing to do. Their long-standing commitment reflects the very spirit of the Subaru Love Promise creating a positive impact where it matters most. We are deeply grateful to Mid-Hudson Subaru, their staff, and every community member who donates a coat. Together, we are wrapping our neighbors in warmth and reminding them they are not alone. That is what sharing the love looks like.
Turning Up the Holidays With Heart - Renee T.
At Q92 (iHeart Radio), we believe music has the power to bring people together especially during the holiday season. Each year, when we flip the switch to Christmas music across our stations, it marks the beginning of a season rooted in joy, generosity, and connection. This year, we were proud to partner once again with Mid-Hudson Subaru to kick off the holidays in a way that truly reflected the spirit of the community. The celebration marked the launch of Christmas music while also officially opening Mid-Hudson Subaru's annual community coat drive, a tradition that has been warming up the Hudson Valley for more than two decades. Bringing these two meaningful moments together created an event filled with purpose, cheer, and heart. The kickoff welcomed a tremendous turnout of community members alongside many of the local organizations Mid-Hudson Subaru supports throughout the year. Partners including Dutchess Outreach, Ulster Savings Bank, and other valued community organizations came together to celebrate, connect, and support a shared mission of giving back. Families enjoyed festive moments with Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus, while choir voices, holiday music, laughter, and smiles filled the air. Thanks to the generosity of Adams Fairacre Farms in Wappingers Falls, guests were treated to donated cider and donuts, adding a warm, hometown touch to an already special evening. What stood out most was the sense of unity. This wasn't just a holiday kickoff, it was a reminder of what's possible when local businesses, nonprofits, and neighbors come together with a shared heart for the community. At Q92 (iHeart Radio), we are honored to help amplify moment likes this; moments that use music, partnership, and compassion to spread joy far beyond airwaves. Working alongside Mid-Hudson Subaru, Dutchess Outreach, Ulster Savings Bank, and so many others allowed us to help kickoff the holiday season with meaning and momentum. That's how the holidays should begin together, with cheer, joy, and heart.
Wrapped in Hope, Surrounded by Care - Jessica P.
At Hudson Valley Cancer Center, every day is filled with courage. Our patients arrive with strength, resilience, and hope, even on days when treatment feels heavy. Small gestures of kindness can make a meaningful difference reminding patients they are seen, supported, and never alone. That's why Subaru Loves to Care holds such a special place in our hearts. Each year, Mid-Hudson Subaru partners, with their customers and team members to create messages of hope for patients undergoing cancer treatment. These handwritten notes filled with encouragement, compassion, and heartfelt words carry powerful reminders that an entire community is standing behind each patient. Along with these messages, Mid-Hudson Subaru delivered warm, heart shaped blankets designed to our Poughkeepsie center to bring comfort during treatment sessions. Soft, comforting, and given with love, these blankets offer both physical warmth and emotional reassurance during moments when it is needed most. Mid-Hudson Subaru's presence, kindness, and sincerity meant just as much as the gifts themselves. it was a reminder that care extends beyond medical treatment. It lives in compassion, connection, and community. For our patients, receiving a message of hope from a stranger can be incredibly powerful. It tells them they are thought of, supported, and surrounded by people who care deeply about their journey. We are profoundly grateful to Mid-Hudson Subaru and everyone who took the time to write a note, share encouragement, and participate in Subaru Loves to Care. These acts of kindness help us create a healing environment rooted not only in medicine, but in humanity. Hope Matters. Comfort Matters. And thanks to this partnership, our patients feel both wrapped in warmth and lifted by love.
Sharing the Love, Because They Listened to My Heart - Jennifer O.
My name is Jojo, and I am a part of the Greystone Programs. This month, I'm proud to be featured in Mid-Hudson Subaru's Share the Love Campaign, something that means more to me than I can put into words. I know that share the Love is about giving back, listening, and lifting people up in your community. Greystone has always done that for me, and this month, Mid-Hudson Subaru choose Greystone as their local charity. Knowing that the place that supports me every day is being supported in return made me feel really special. When I visited the dealership, I wasn't expecting anything just for me. But the team at Mid-Hudson Subaru surprise me with gifts they had chosen thoughtfully and with care, a large art set and bracelet making kit. The bracelet set was the exact one I had been hoping for, I couldn't hold back my tears. Not because of the gifts, but because it felt like someone truly listening to me and saw who I am. Art helps me express my feelings, and making bracelets help me feel calm, creative, and proud of what i can do. Those gifts were more than presents. They were kindness, Tey were kindness, encouragement, and love. Being a part of Share the Love has shown me how powerful it is when a community comes together with heart. Because of Greystone and Mid-Hudson Subaru, I felt seen, valued a, and cared for. that's what Share the Love means to me, and I'm so grateful to be part of it.
A Shared Mission of Compassion: ARF Beacon & Mid-Hudson Subaru Bring Subaru Loves Pets to Life - Cassi P.
At ARF Beacon, our mission is simple but powerful to rescue, protect, and place animals into loving forever homes while promoting responsible pet ownership throughout our community. Every day, we work to give animals a second chance and that mission becomes even stronger when we are joined by partners who share our values. Earlier this year, we were honored to partner with Mid-Hudson Subaru for their Subaru Loves Pets event, turning their dealership into a welcoming space for compassion, connection, and hope. With live adoptions hosted right in the showroom, Mid-Hudson Subaru opened their doors and their hearts to animals in need. What truly stood out was the full commitment of the Mid-Hudson Subaru team. Members of their staff participated, helping to welcome guest, share each animal's story, and ensure a warm, supportive experience for adopters. Their genuine care and enthusiasm made a meaningful difference, creating an environment where both people and pets felt comfortable and valued. We are so deeply moved by the response from the community. Customers and local families took the time to learn about adoption, meet our animals and in many cases, provide them with loving homes. Some of our pets found forever homes that day, a life changing outcome that would not have been possible without this partnership. Events like this remind us that animal welfare is truly a community effort. Mid-Hudson Subaru's dedication to giving back goes far beyond business it reflects deep commitment to making a positive impact where it matters most. Their support helps us continue our work and brings awareness to the importance of rescue and adoption. We are incredibly grateful Mid-Hudson Subaru, their staff, and everyone who participates in this Subaru Loves pet's event. Together, we didn't just host adoptions, we created new beginnings and strengthened the bond between community and the animals who depend on it.
