Love Promise Stories from Dan Perkins Subaru

Every month, we select inspiring stories from customers and partners from around our area who strive to support our collective commitment and feature them here
A fresh start for pets in need - Susan W
Sheila the Chihuahua mix loved getting pet. So much so, that if you stopped petting her, she’d push her nose into your hand for more! Staff and volunteers at the Connecticut Humane Society in Westport loved giving her attention, but are happy she’s now being spoiled in a loving home of her own. And thanks to Dan Perkins Subaru, another pet can take her place at CHS and get their own fresh start. That’s because Dan Perkins Subaru donated $100 to CHS for each cat and dog adoption in October for Subaru Loves Pets Month, to put toward veterinary care for more critters! So many more pets just like Sheila are getting the care they need at CHS, thanks to the dealership’s support. Visit CThumane.org for more information on the pets.

Dan Perkins Subaru Holds Badly Needed Blood Drive - Gary S
Dan Perkins Subaru is proud to have participated in saving lives with our annual Red Cross Blood Drive. We collected 30 pints, exceeding our goal by over 100%. We are very thankful that our Dan Perkins team and partners were able to provide well needed blood to our local hospitals. During a time when there was only a three day supply in Connecticut, our staff and customers rallied for the cause. Thanks again to all who participated in our Blood Drive Event. Dan Perkins Subaru, will rise to the occasion when our community needs us. To see so many people give of themselves to help others was an amazing experience for all of us. Thank you! WHY?Along with helping save lives, there are a number of reasons why donating blood is important. 1. A single donation can save three lives. The Dan Perkins Subaru Blood Drive potentially saved up to 90 lives. A single blood donation can also provide different blood components that can help save up to three lives.2. Blood cannot be manufactured. Despite medical and technological advances, blood cannot be made, so donations are the only way we can give blood to those who need it. Which is why Dan Perkins Subaru stepped up to the plate! 3. Blood is needed every two seconds. Nearly 21 million blood components are transfused in the U.S. every year.4. Only 37 percent of the country’s population is able to donate blood.5. Your friends or family may need your blood someday.
