Crews Subaru Community Involvment

Crews Subaru Cares: It's in Our Blood

As a proud member of the Charleston community, Crews Subaru has made a significant impact through our regular blood drives and unwavering support for charitable organizations like Make-A-Wish and the Ronald McDonald House. Our dedication to giving back has recently gained recognition from Subaru and Upworthy, highlighting our positive influence on our community.

How Crews Subaru of Charleston Gives Back to the Community

One of our most important initiatives is organizing regular blood drives in collaboration with local blood banks and medical facilities. We understand the critical need for blood donations and are honored to play a part in saving lives and fostering a culture of giving. Our blood drives serve as a rallying point for the community, bringing together individuals who are eager to make a difference by donating blood.

Hosting these drives goes beyond providing a venue; we actively engage our staff, customers, and the wider community to participate. Together with our partners, we ensure that the drives are well-organized, efficient, and safe. Our team works closely with medical professionals to address any concerns and create a welcoming environment for donors. This approach has encouraged more people to participate and established a supportive atmosphere where everyone feels valued and appreciated.

The impact of our blood drives on the community has been immense. By organizing these events regularly, we have helped meet the ongoing demand for blood transfusions in local hospitals, saving countless lives. Our efforts have had a profound impact on accident victims, surgical patients, individuals with chronic illnesses, and countless others who depend on blood donations for their survival and overall well-being.

Beyond the direct impact on individuals, our blood drives have fostered a sense of unity and community spirit. These events bring people together, creating a shared purpose and a collective understanding of the importance of giving back. By actively involving our customers, staff, and partners, we have built a culture of compassion and generosity that extends far beyond our dealership's walls.

Join Us by Donating at Our Next Drive

The recognition from Subaru and Upworthy is a testament to our commitment and the positive influence we strive to have on our community. We are humbled and grateful for the acknowledgment. Our blood drives and other community initiatives reflect our deep-rooted belief in improving the lives of those around us. We are honored to stand as an example of a business that recognizes its responsibility and actively works to make a positive difference.

Crews Subaru of Charleston remains dedicated to our community and will continue to organize blood drives, support charitable organizations, and seek new ways to uplift those in need. Together with the support of our incredible community, we are confident that we can create a brighter future and make a lasting impact on the lives of those who call Charleston home.

The Subaru Share the Love Event

Giving Back to the low country. More than a car dealer.

Crews Subaru Loves Supporting Surfers Healing Folly Beach

"One Perfect Day" is what this is all about. The unbridled joy of the kids and their families - and the volunteers.
Surfer's Healing for Autism. One Perfect Day.

On August 23rd, 2023 Crews Subaru attended the 13^th Annual Surfers Healing for Autism event at Folly Beach, which was our 11^th year as a major sponsor. Surfers healing is a surf camp for children with autism, nearly 300 kids attended and got to surf with pro surfers from around the world and some of Folly's finest. At first, many of the children are apprehensive about getting into the water but once they get in and get up on the surfboard, they don't want to stop. 

You could see the joy it brought them.

Over 2,000 people including family, friends, and volunteers were there cheering on the kids all day.

Crews Subaru is honored to be part of what they consider to be one perfect day.

Our Dog Day Afternoon

Located at Whirlin Waters water park at Wannamaker County Park, part of Charleston County Parks  & Recreation. On the weekend after Labor Day (Labor Day is the last day the water parks are open to the public) they opened up for dogs to enjoy the park. The lazy river was a huge hit (as it always is!), as well as the tide pool. Crews Subaru was a Presenting Sponsor of the events at Splash Island and Whirlin Waters.

Our Friends of the Library Pop-Up Book Sales

November 12th - 14th, 2021 the Friends of the Library Members had an exclusive sale on Thursday, with the sale open to the public on Friday and Saturday. We had an excellent turnout and the Friends of the Library was able to meet all their goals for the sale! Thank you to the Crews Subaru community for showing your support for this essential organization.

Crews Subaru is a Proud Sponsor of SheTris

This past weekend, on September 26th, Crews Subaru helped to support SheTris as a presenting sponsor. It was their final event for 2021, and we are so proud to have been a part of such a wonderful event.

On August 21st, at the Malin Plantation Clubhouse in Mt. Pleasant, SheTris hosted their August triathlon event and Crews Subaru was cheering everyone on the whole way. The mission of She Tris is to create a welcoming and supportive triathlon environment for women and girls who want to complete a triathlon, regardless of their level of experience.
For She Tris, the moment a participant crosses the Finish Line is special. This triathlon is not pitting you against others as much as it is pitting you against yourself. To push harder. To set a goal and achieve it. All women. 3 Sports. One Journey.

Crews Subaru and Camping World Partner with the Make a Wish Foundation

Crews Subaru, Camping World and the Make a Wish Foundation of South Carolina got together to help fulfill the wishes of our friend Zakary and his amazing family. Because Zachary has a copromised immune system from his kidney transplant, which his mother Nicole donated, he has been unable to enjoy the experience of camping. Together with camping world and the Make a Wish foundation, we are so blessed to give the gift of hope and support to a family in need.
