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!

A Gesture of Care: Subaru Supports Patients Through LLS Partnership - Lauren S
Through the Subaru Loves to Care initiative, Dellenbach Subaru has partnered with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and UCHealth Northern Colorado to bring comfort and encouragement to cancer patients. Each summer, this meaningful collaboration results in the delivery of cozy blankets, thoughtful care kits, and handwritten messages of hope. On 6/16/25, Subaru generously visited the hospital to personally deliver these items, brightening the day of patients undergoing treatment. These simple yet powerful gestures are deeply appreciated—patients often share how much it means to feel seen and supported by their broader community. By engaging local Subaru retailers and community members, these deliveries not only uplift patients but also help advance LLS’s mission to improve the quality of life for patients and their families. We are truly grateful for Subaru’s compassion, generosity, and commitment to making a meaningful difference.

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.

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.

Our team takes immense pride in these acts of kindness, knowing that our contributions make a real difference in people's lives. It's moments like these that remind us of the true value of community and the impact we can have when we come together.
