In a time when educators are asked to do more with less, meaningful community partnerships can make all the difference. One such partnership—between Findlay Subaru Prescott and the Yavapai County Education Foundation (YCEF)—is proving that when local businesses invest in education, the entire community benefits.
This year, as part of the Subaru Loves Learning initiative, Findlay Subaru Prescott is donating $12,500 to support 25 classrooms and 535 students across Yavapai County. But the impact goes beyond dollars. Each of those classrooms will also receive a school supply kit, filled with essential materials that help teachers create engaging, well-equipped learning environments.
Since 2021, this partnership has grown into a powerful force for good. In just four years, Findlay Subaru Prescott has contributed $60,000, delivered 100 school supply kits, and supported 120 classrooms and 2,900 students. These numbers tell a story of sustained commitment—one that reflects a deep belief in the power of education to transform lives.
“Education is the foundation of a thriving community,” says Jason Jenkins, General Manager of Findlay Subaru Prescott. “We’re proud to support the teachers and students who are shaping the future of Yavapai County.”
To celebrate this year’s recipients, Findlay Subaru Prescott and YCEF are planning a special recognition event where teachers will be honored and presented with their grant certificates and school supply kits. The event date is still being finalized, but the intention is clear: to shine a spotlight on the educators who go above and beyond for their students every day.
Equipping teachers with the tools they need is more than a gesture—it’s a direct investment in the quality of education. When classrooms are stocked with basic supplies, teachers can focus on teaching rather than stretching limited resources. These kits help reduce out-of-pocket expenses for educators and ensure that every student has access to the materials they need to learn, create, and succeed.
The Subaru Loves Learning initiative is part of the broader Subaru Love Promise, a nationwide effort to make a positive impact in the areas of education, the environment, health, and more. Locally, that promise is being fulfilled in tangible, heartfelt ways. Subaru is more than a car company.
In a world where headlines often focus on what’s going wrong, it’s worth pausing to celebrate what’s going right. When businesses like Findlay Subaru Prescott step up for education, they’re not just writing checks—they’re writing a better future for all of us. Giving back to the community, making the world a better place.
