Portland, OR. Lithia Subaru of Oregon City is “sharing the love” with the pets at the Oregon Humane Society in the form of a $51,080 donation. The gift marks the largest donation from Subaru’s Share the Love event in the five years since OHS was first selected as one of the local participating charities. At the check presentation were Jason Hirata, District Sales Manager – Subaru of America; Ryan Vaughan, General Sales Manager – Lithia Subaru of Oregon City; Sharon Harmon, OHS President and CEO; Sarah Yusavitz, OHS Corporate Relations Officer; Diego Montoya, Zone Retailer Development Manager – Subaru of America; Peter Holt, District Parts and Service Manager – Subaru of America.

During the Share the Love event, which ran Nov. 15, 2018 to Jan. 2, 2019, $250 was donated for every new Subaru vehicle purchased or leased. This was the 11th year for the campaign which is expected to bring $140 million to local and national charities.

Since 2013, Lithia Subaru of Oregon City has selected the Oregon Humane Society as the local beneficiary of the Share the Love event. “This year’s total was an absolute record – a testament to our staff and customer commitment to OHS,” says Ryan Vaughan, General Sales Manager, Lithia Subaru of Oregon City.
