One Less Thing for Our Family to Carry - Danielle S
My name is Danielle Sullivan, and my family is currently living through one of the scariest times of our lives. My 37-year-old sister, Cacharel, is critically ill at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center after suffering an aortic dissection and an aneurysm in her aortic arch. She has Marfan syndrome and is facing major open heart surgery. She is also a mom to two girls, ages 14 and 13, who need their mom home. Our family is from New Jersey. When we learned how serious Cacharel's condition was, we dropped everything and came to North Carolina to be beside her. I originally had a flight home, but I canceled it because I couldn't leave my sister. We have no idea how long this journey will be. As the days passed, transportation became another problem we had to figure out. I initially rented a car, but the cost of keeping a rental indefinitely was quickly becoming another financial burden during an already overwhelming time. So I decided to take a chance. I started calling dealerships in Winston-Salem, explaining what was happening to my sister and asking if anyone might be willing to help our family with temporary transportation. I knew it was an unusual request, and honestly, I expected to hear no. Then I called Flow Subaru of Winston-Salem. They listened. I told them about Cacharel. I told them why I was in North Carolina. I told them I didn't know when I would be able to go home. And instead of simply telling me there was nothing they could do, they took the time to see if there was a way they could help. They found one. Flow Subaru offered me a loaner vehicle for only $25 a day while I remain here supporting my sister. To someone else, that may sound like a car. To me, it is so much more. It means I can get to the hospital to sit beside my sister. It means I can help my nieces and my family. It means I can get groceries, handle errands and do all of the little things that still have to happen even when your entire world feels like it has stopped. Most importantly, it is one less thing for our family to carry. Throughout this experience, I have been telling my sister that I will flip the world upside down if that's what it takes to bring her home. What I never expected was how many complete strangers would start helping me flip it. Flow Subaru of Winston-Salem became one of those people. I am incredibly grateful to RJ Currey and the team at Flow Subaru for listening to our story and choosing compassion. They didn't know my family. They didn't owe us anything. They simply saw a family going through something incredibly difficult and asked themselves what they could do to make it a little easier. That kindness matters more than I can put into words. When people talk about community, I think this is what they mean. It isn't always a huge gesture. Sometimes it is recognizing that someone is carrying too much and saying, "Let us carry this one thing for you." Thank you, RJ. Thank you, Flow Subaru of Winston-Salem. And thank you to everyone who chooses to show up for families like mine when they need it most. We still have a long road ahead of us, but today that road feels a little easier to travel. We're bringing Cacharel home. ❤️

Flow Subaru & Blood Cancer United at Novant Health Derrick L. Davis Cancer Institute - Caren H
On June 18, I had the privilege of joining Flow Subaru and the team at Novant Health Derrick L. Davis Cancer Institute for a meaningful day of service through the Subaru Loves to Care® initiative. It was inspiring to see our community come together with one shared purpose - to bring comfort, hope, and encouragement to individuals undergoing cancer treatment. Together, Flow Subaru and Blood Cancer United delivered 80 warm blankets and 30 patient care kits - some in heart shaped pillows - to the cancer institute. The partnership also provided $2,500 in urgent-needs assistance for five patient households, helping ease some of the financial challenges that often accompany a cancer diagnosis. While these gifts may seem simple, they have a meaningful impact. Cancer treatment can leave patients feeling cold and physically uncomfortable, making a warm blanket a welcome source of comfort. The care kits and handwritten messages of hope serve as reminders that they are not facing their journey alone - that an entire community is standing beside them, cheering them on every step of the way. Subaru retailers have partnered with Blood Cancer United, formerly The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, through the Subaru Loves to Care initiative since 2016. I was proud to see Flow Subaru continue its local commitment to patients at Novant Health Derrick L. Davis Cancer Institute, marking at least the second consecutive year of support for the cancer institute. A heartfelt thank you to the Flow Subaru team—Scott Hooker, General Manager; RJ Currey, Sales Manager; Hanna Wood and Dereon Campbell, Interns; and Santiago Robledo-Salazar, Marketing Account Manager - for investing their time and compassion in this effort. I also want to thank Stacy Sawyers and the outstanding team at Novant Health Derrick L. Davis Cancer Institute for welcoming us and for the exceptional care they provide to patients and families every day. At Blood Cancer United, we are incredibly grateful to partner with the Subaru Love Promise® and dedicated retailers like Flow Subaru in our mission to cure blood cancers and improve the lives of patients and their families. Seeing these partnerships in action is a powerful reminder that when businesses, healthcare providers, and nonprofits work together, we can make a lasting difference - not only through research and treatment, but through moments of kindness that bring comfort and hope when they are needed most.
A small tree, a meaningful start - Steven L
I'm so glad I stopped by the event at Flow Subaru of Winston Salem. It was a great opportunity to connect with the community and take home something that will continue to grow for years to come. I chose a river birch, and I'm looking forward to planting it and watching it become part of my home. The earth gives us so much every day, and it feels good to give something back, even in a small way. This tree is more than just a plant. It's a reminder to appreciate the world around us and to do our part to care for it. Thank you to the Subaru team for making the event meaningful and giving me the chance to take home something special.

Coats, Community, and Care at The Shalom Project - Eric H
I had the chance to be part of a really special day with Flow Subaru of Winston-Salem at The Shalom Project. What stood out to me the most was seeing how many families showed up and how much this meant to them. We were able to give out coats for kids of all ages—from as young as 3 all the way up to adult sizes like XXL—which made a huge difference as the weather gets colder. It wasn't just about the coats either. There were snacks, conversations, and a real sense of community. You could see the relief and appreciation on people's faces, and that's something that sticks with you. Moments like this remind me how important it is to come together and support one another. I'm grateful to have been part of it.
Celebrating Learning with Subaru Loves to Learn at Winston-Salem - Santiago R
My very first event with Flow Subaru of Winston-Salem couldn’t have been more meaningful—or more fun! As part of Subaru’s “Loves to Learn” initiative, we joined an incredible evening where nearly 80 teachers came together for dinner and community. The highlight of the night was getting to hand out 10 Subaru Loves Learning Kits to the school. Seeing the smiles, excitement, and gratitude from the teachers reminded me why I’m so proud to be part of a company that believes giving back to education is just as important as selling cars. These kits are more than boxes—they’re filled with classroom materials, inspiration, and the message that teachers matter. Watching the teachers light up as they opened them was a moment I’ll never forget. It was such a joy to celebrate the start of the school year surrounded by passionate educators and to represent Flow Subaru in supporting a cause that shapes the future of our community. Subaru truly lives by its Love Promise—and being part of that mission made this first event an unforgettable experience. Santiago Robledo
MSES Flexible Seating and Literacy - Mariah F
The 5th grade team at Mineral Springs Elementary School thanks Subaru for their sponsorship. Our school is a Title I school in Winston-Salem serving many underrepresented and underserved children. However our students are eager to learn and desire comfortable places to do so. With these monetary donations we were able to purchase flexible seating and a class set of Kwame Alexander's " Crossover". The flexible seating allows students to stay seated comfortably while giving them the ability to get out excess energy during class. The class set of Crossover gives students access to a culturally relevant book that addresses challenges in today's society. The 5th grade team as MSES sincerely appreciates this partnership.
Flow Subaru Teams Up to Support Local Community - Nate R
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 Winston-Salem, this is a harsh reality. Helping others strengthens communities, which is why Flow 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 Flow Subaru have helped nearly 900,000 children and adults in urgent need. On 01/15/2025, Flow Subaru donated 300 coats to The Shalom Project. 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.
