Imagine going without a coat, shoes, or even socks. For millions of children and adults experiencing homelessness and other urgent need situations across the country, even here in Brooklyn, this is a harsh reality. Helping others strengthens communities, which is why Bay Ridge Subaru is partnering with Operation Warm®, a national nonprofit focused on connecting children with the resources they need to thrive. Through this partnership and other Subaru Loves to Help® efforts, Subaru and retailers like Bay Ridge Subaru have helped nearly 900,000 children and adults in urgent need. On 01/14/2025, Bay Ridge Subaru donated 120 coats to Reaching Out Community Services. These essential items not only help keep children protected, warm, and dry, it can have a significant impact on a child's mental and emotional well-being.
Sharing some Love! - Thomas R
In a world where each day brings uncertainty and quick changes, we can count on one thing at Bay Ridge Subaru; our Sales manager will start playing Christmas music unapologetically in July and he will be storing presents for the annual toy drive with Maimonides Hospital even earlier! Mike always goes above and beyond to make each toy -drive bigger than the last one. He quietly organizes his friends and family to donate toys and makes it a family event ensuring that those families who are going through difficult times have a little Christmas spirit! Mike-thank you for your unwavering dedication to the children and families at Maimonides Hospital and continuing this tradition at Bay Ridge Subaru.

Subaru helping my school - Rose L
I am a teacher with the NYC Department of Education and this year (earlier this year) the schools local Subaru dealership donated a large amount of school supplies and books to help out the next generation study and learn. I believe this is the 3rd year of partnership but they went above and beyond. Elizabeth at Bay Ridge Subaru and her staff went above They always help us out and they definitely made a difference in many young minds. I hope and pray all your retailers do as much for the community as Bay Ridge Subaru does - it’s not just a advertising gimmick ya real life caring and I in return would use them for all my automotive needs as they deserve as much good as they do for our local Bensonhurst community. Happy Holidays Bay Ridge Subaru.

Storm trooper kit - Wilson D
When our grandson was 3 years old he was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma. A type of brain cancer. He loves star wars and i was able to get a couple of guys from out local 501st garrison to visit him in the hospital. After that I wanted to participate and was looking into a stormtrooper suit. My wife and myself stream almost everything. During each commercial, there was a Subaru commercial aboutvthrm helping kids with cancer. I called our local Subaru dealership and they asked what organization i was with. I told them it's just me and that I'm looking for this kit to visit other kids at our local children's hospital. After seeing the joy they gave my grandson. They denied, after a few more commercials, I tried calling the Subaru corporation, but got Elizabeth at Bay Ridge Subaru in New York. I told her what I was looking for. He boss was out of town, but said that she would call me back next week. After the call I didn't think that I would hear from her again. But, the next week she called back saying that they would help getting g my the stormtrooper kit. The kit was about $2500. So, I sent them the order form and within a week I received the kit. It had to be put together. It's was a slow process, but almost got it done after a year of figuring out how. Here are some pictures of the kit in pieces and complete. Along with my grandson. You can follow his story on Facebook @ #grahamstrongky. We are from the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area. And received help from the awesome people in New York. Thanks again Elizabeth.

TOY DRIVE 2023 - Mike K
My partner and I walked into the Bay Ridge showroom and noticed 6 wrapped boxes of toys. When Halida paired us up with a sales consultant we asked what the purposes of all the toys were. Ben told us about their annual Toy Drive benefitting sick children at a local Brooklyn hospital for the holidays. At that point we knew Bay Ridge Subaru was the store we should buy our car at. We left Saturday with a new Forester and when we got home we ordered $100 worth of new toys from Amazon to help out these kids! It is a great place to buy a car because its not all about the car, its also about the community. Thank you Bay Ridge Subaru Sales Team and we hope you have a terrific holiday season
Bay Ridge Subaru adoption event 2023 - Dee G
This past month Bay Ridge Subaru hosted an adoption event with Bad Ass Animal Rescue of Brooklyn. It was a really fantastic event where pups met their new families. We were there to look at new cars and when we got caught up in the festivities we leased a new Forester and started new adoption paperwork for our new family member, Sparky. Great work Bay Ridge Subaru and my salesperson Ben “Little Nemo” Rivera, we love not only our Subaru but Bay Ridge Subaru!!! ♥️💙
