Annual Pet Adoption Event - Chris D.
Dellenbach Subaru Hosts Annual Pet Adoption Event with Animal Friends Alliance This past month, our team at Dellenbach Subaru had the joy of hosting our annual pet adoption event in partnership with the incredible Animal Friends Alliance! ?? It’s one of our favorite days of the year — a time when wagging tails, happy families, and community spirit fill our showroom. Together with Animal Friends Alliance, we helped connect loving pets with their forever homes and raised awareness for the amazing work this nonprofit does right here in our community. We’re proud to partner with such a compassionate organization dedicated to saving lives and supporting animal welfare. A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, donated, volunteered, or adopted — your kindness truly makes a difference! At Dellenbach Subaru, we believe in the Subaru Love Promise — and nothing embodies that promise more than helping our furry friends find a family. We can’t wait to do it all again next year! ??????
School Supplies Dropoff - Chris D.
At Dellenbach Subaru, giving back is part of who we are—and this back-to-school season, we had the opportunity to make a real difference. Through our community outreach efforts, we proudly donated a full collection of school supplies to the students and teachers of Linton Elementary. What made this initiative even more special was one of our own customers stepping up in a big way. Touched by the cause, they personally donated $500 to help support the school. Their generosity reminds us that when a community comes together, amazing things happen. Thank you to Linton Elementary —and to everyone who continues to support and uplift our local schools. Here's to a great year ahead!

Operation Warm Drop! - chris d.
At Dellenbach Subaru, giving back to our Northern Colorado community is and always has been a core value. Once again, we had the privilege of participating in "Operation Warm" with Homeward Alliance, a local nonprofit dedicated to providing people in need with warm winter essentials. Through this initiative, we donated numerous boxes of brand-new shoes, hoping to make a difference for local kids as they head into the colder months. We are especially proud to do this in honor of John Dellenbach, who always personally handled our donations and drop-offs. His generous spirit and commitment to helping others continue to inspire us. We miss you. We’re grateful to carry on his tradition of giving back, and we hope these shoes bring warmth and comfort to many kids in our community.

Thanks to our amazing community, numerous puppies and kittens found their forever homes, bringing joy to families and pets alike. This year, the popular "Chewbarus" Subaru Crosstrek dog toys were a big hit, helping us raise plenty of donations for Animal Friends Alliance!

School Supply Drive - Linton Elementary - Chris D.
Dellenbach Subaru proudly partnered with Linton Elementary School during the 2024 Subaru Loves to Learn initiative. This collaboration enabled us to provide essential classroom supplies, making a meaningful difference for both students and teachers. In addition to pre-packaged supply boxes, we organized an in-house school supply drive that our employees enthusiastically participated in. On donation day, we loaded up the supplies and headed to Linton Elementary. Our newest team member, Shelly Barnes, who had just retired after nearly 30 years of teaching at Linton, made a surprise visit to her old school. The educators expressed their gratitude for our contributions, and it was heartwarming to see Shelly reconnect with former students and colleagues. We at Dellenbach Subaru were thrilled to support our community in such a special way.
Did Dellenbach Subaru go above and beyond, provide exceptional service, or support causes that are important to you? We'd love to hear about it.
