Subaru Loves to Help
What an incredible opportunity we had here at McGovern Subaru to partner with Operation Blessing and their amazing volunteers in Portsmouth, NH, during our Operation Warm event. It was truly a day filled with heart, kindness, and community spirit.
Subaru's partnership with Operation Warm allows us to give back to the community in such a meaningful way. We know that supporting our youngest members of society is crucial - it's not just about providing material items, but about building confidence and giving every child the opportunity to succeed.
Operation Warm is a nonprofit dedicated to giving the gift of new coats and shoes, ensuring that children can attend school, socialize with peers, and play outside with pride. They know that a brand-new coat or pair of shoes can make a world of difference in a child's life. It's a simple but powerful gift that builds self-esteem, and we are honored to be a part of that effort.
This was our first year working alongside Operation Blessing, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Working with Tammy, the Director, and her wonderful team was nothing short of a blessing. With her years of experience and leadership, Tammy turned what could have been chaotic into a smooth, successful event. We are so grateful for her dedication and the amazing work done by all of the volunteers.
On March 26th, 2025, McGovern Subaru had the pleasure of handing out free socks, shoes, pizza, snacks, desserts, and drinks - all to fill the immediate needs of families in our community. We provided 110 pairs of shoes, each with two pairs of socks. And any remaining socks and shoes were boxed up and donated to Operation Blessing for future use.
This event was a reminder of how powerful community collaboration can be. We are proud to be part of a team that is making a difference, one coat, one pair of shoes, and one smile at a time.
Thank you to Operation Blessing, Operation Warm, our incredible volunteers, and everyone who helped make this day so special. Together, we're creating a stronger, more connected community.
Subaru Loves the Earth
At Subaru, and those of us here at McGovern Subaru, believe that the world we leave behind reflects who we are. Because of that, we are dedicated to protecting and preserving our planet for future generations. As part of Subaru Loves the Earth this year, we teamed up with the Arbor Day Foundation to keep our communities green! Trees are vital-they provide oxygen, clean our air and water, cool our neighborhoods, and even improve our health. However, we lose 36 million trees annually due to age, disease, and extreme weather. That's why we took action! With the help of the Arbor Day Foundation, we proudly gave away 100 free trees to residents of Newington, NH, and surrounding towns. Seeing the smiles on our customers' faces was a true reminder of how much we all care about the Earth.
Thank you to everyone who joined us in making a difference-one tree at a time!
Subaru Loves to Care
Today at McGovern Subaru, we had the honor of delivering hope and comfort. As part of the Subaru Loves to Care initiative, we proudly donated cozy blankets, thoughtful care packages, and handwritten cards of encouragement to the Cancer Ward at Portsmouth Regional Hospital. These messages weren't just from our team; they were also from our incredible customers, whose words of kindness will now reach those facing some of the toughest days of their lives. This annual tradition means so much to us. Partnering with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society reminds us why we do this: to support their mission to cure blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, MDS, and MPNs, and to help those affected find comfort and strength both emotionally and financially.
We also had the privilege of sharing gifts from a very special customer, Bill, who donated notebooks and get-well cards in honor of his wife, a proud cancer survivor. Bill shared that during her battle, he remembered seeing patients who had no one by their side. His gift was made so that no one feels alone. His generosity and compassion were deeply moving, and we were proud to stand alongside his kindness with our own. It was a powerful day of giving, full of purpose, connection, and care.
Subaru Loves Learning
We at McGovern Subaru are incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to sponsor the Fox Point Sunset 5-Mile Road Race alongside the Newington School System for the second year in a row. Not only did we sponsor the event and provide water to the families and runners, but two of our dedicated employees Bill Bailey, our Parts Manager, and Shaun Lessard, our Service Manager-also chose to participate in the race, and our new sales associate Jay Boyd volunteered to drive the Pace Car in the race. It was fantastic to see the smiling faces of all the participants as they started, and even better to see many of them still smiling at the finish line.
This annual race is one of the school's largest fundraisers, featuring a scenic 5-mile (8K) course that winds through the historic streets of Newington Village, offering views of the water, farmland, and a few challenging hills. The Fox Point 5-Mile Road Race is the primary fundraiser for the Newington School Supporters, with all proceeds directly benefiting students at the Newington Public School. These funds help provide classroom technology, after-school programs, playground equipment, and more! We can't wait to do it again next year!
Subaru Loves Pets
Our furry friends and family deserve our love and support. We're proud to partner with the New Hampshire SPCA to help keep all animals healthy and safe.
McGovern Subaru is deeply committed to community involvement, engaging with both the people we encounter daily and the animals we cherish. Recently, we had the honor of participating in the SPCA Slumber Pawty Sleepover, aiding in fundraising for the local shelter. Thanks to our dedicated team, we successfully raised $1,000.00 for the SPCA, contributing to their mission. Our Parts Department Manager even spent a night in the kennel with an adorable pet awaiting adoption. Collaborating with the New Hampshire SPCA, which operates tirelessly to ensure the well-being of pets, is a privilege we hold dear. Participating in such a meaningful event, helping secure loving homes and providing financial support for these animals, is incredibly rewarding. The New Hampshire SPCA diligently cares for pets as they await their forever homes.
Subaru Share the Love
McGovern Subaru Donates $21,500 to the New Hampshire SPCA
Our 9th Year Supporting a Truly Heroic Organization
This morning, our team at McGovern Subaru, alongside our partners at Subaru of New England, had the tremendous honor of presenting a $21,500 check to the New Hampshire SPCA - an incredible $5,000 more than last year's donation!
The NHSPCA holds a special place in our hearts. Their unwavering commitment to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming animals across New Hampshire inspires us every day. As part of Subaru's Share the Love® Event, Subaru donates $250 for every new Subaru purchased or leased. At McGovern Subaru, we proudly go even further - contributing an additional $75 for each vehicle sold or leased, plus $3 for every Subaru oil filter sold during oil changes.
This effort is powered by our amazing team and loyal customers, and we thank you all for making this possible.
The NHSPCA provides shelter and second chances to nearly 2,500 animals each year. As an open-admission, unlimited-stay facility, every animal gets the time, care, and compassion they deserve to find their forever home. From adoption and training programs to cruelty intervention and low-cost clinics, their work is nothing short of heroic.
This marks our 9th year of proudly supporting the NHSPCA - and we are honored to stand beside such a compassionate, life-changing organization.
