After more than three months of quarantine, youngsters are set to return to daycare and educational instruction at the Arc this upcoming Monday.

We are so grateful for the opportunity to support this important transition for youngsters and staff at the Arc by providing a wagon full of brand new art and craft supplies to enhance every child's personalized learning experiences this summer.

The Arc of Somerset County serves individuals with developmental disabilities and their families from birth through the senior years of life through our many programs and services in Somerset County. This important New Jersey nonprofit serves more than 1,400 children, adults, and their families across 33 locations including 27 group homes and apartments, four employment centers, the Jerry Davis Center for Children and Families, The Achievement Center at Raritan Valley Community College and Camp Jotoni.

At Victory Subaru, charitable support to the nonprofits making a difference in our community is the crux of who we are as a local Somerset, New Jersey, family-owned and operated dealership.

Love - it's what makes a Subaru - a Subaru.

Special thanks to our Title Clerk Michele Chevalier, Victory's charity organizer, and Lauren Frary, executive director of The Arc of Somerset County.

The community is warmly invited to support the good work of the Arc, here: https://www.thearcofsomerset.org.

 

SOMERSET - MAY 14 2020 - Victory Subaru received a call in early May from one of our community partners, our friends at the Jewish Family Services (JFS) food pantry, asking for support.

The charity offers non-sectarian assistance to the hungry and poor, as well as those facing unexpected traumatic emergency situations, in Somerset County and beyond.

Due to demand in wake of the COVID-19 crisis, supplies were low. During the call, JFS asked Victory Subaru to make an emergency donation of goods for its community food pantry. 

"Yes!"

Soon afterward, we collected supplies, from canned goods to toothpaste, and Judy Cavalieri crosstreked over to Victory Subaru in Somerset to pick up an Outback's load-of-food that the dealership donated. 

Victory's Charity Organizer and chief Title Clerk, Michele Chevalier, coordinated the campaign. "Victory Subaru was so happy to make a food donation to such a fantastic organization of people who don't see race or religion," Chevalier said. "Like Victory Subaru, this nonprofit just loves to care."

After Victory Subaru's team answered and provided JFS with this urgently needed food donation, Cavalieri said the charitable gift and goodwill community effort "etched Subaru's Legacy into the annals of the JFS food pantry."

The family-owned, award winning dealership made a previous donation to JFS ahead of Thanksgiving last year.

Earlier this spring in April, Victory Subaur donated essential supplies, as well as crafts, toys and games for children, to the Center for Great Expectations to support the recovery of domestic abuse victims across New Jersey.

Victory Subaru is also proud to support Feeding America this spring by donating more than 81,000 meals to the Community Foodbank of New Jersey.

SOMERSET -  April 30, 2020 - Victory Subaru donated essential goods this week to the Center for Great Expectations to support New Jersey victims in recovery from domestic abuse.

 

 

On Monday, Victory Subaru fully loaded the trunk of a 2020 Outback with essential supplies and drove to the Center for Great Expectations in Somerset to drop off the goods. Items included brand-new packages of baby wipes and diapers, cases of distilled water, dish soap, laundry detergent and containers of hair conditioner and body wash. Victory Subaru's charitable donation also included coloring books, markers, colored pencils and an assortment of games. 

"We are so thankful to Victory Subaru for their support not only during this challenging time but also for the near decade of support they have provided to the Center for Great Expectations," said Pamela DeLuca, chief development officer. "The generosity of our friends and community is invaluable to the over 200 women, children and men we are serving daily. You are treasured members of the CGE family."

Victory Subaru has supported the Center for Great Expectations frequently during the last six years and made a fiscal charitable cash donation of more than $33,000 during its annual 2018  Share The Love event. Doing the most good possible in the local community wouldn't be possible without the support of Victory Subaru's wonderful community-conscientious customers. 

"Victims of domestic abuse are not alone thanks to the good work of this incredible local charity, which helps women and children across the entire state," Mr. Baker said. " New Jersey is a place where good people always come together to help one another when crises hit our community, from natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina to the current COVID-19 national emergency. Being a good neighbor means helping one another and supporting the advocates working every day to make a difference in the lives of others."

The Center for Great Expectations was founded in 1998 with the mission of providing homeless pregnant women a safe place so that they may complete a healthy pregnancy. The Center for Great Expectations offers both adolescent and adult services including outpatient treatment and permanent supportive housing. 

 "Victory Subaru is grateful for the opportunity to support the Center for Great Exceptions," Mr. Baker said. "This crisis is a key opportunity for businesses in good standing to reaffirm their commitment to this community by making charitable donations to help our neighbors and friends combating the plague of domestic violence here in New Jersey. We are in this together."

Community members are invited to drop off donations for the  Center for Great Exceptions at Victory Subaru.

Victory Subaru donated more than $40,000 to the nonprofit BallsFest in May to support its mission to inspire and support people battling cancer including children, young adults and their families.
