What partnering with Adventure Subaru looks like
A partnership with Adventure Subaru in Painesville, Ohio, isn't a sponsorship transaction. It's a working relationship: a planning conversation, a shared set of values, and a real commitment to do something useful in the community we share. We bring media reach, in-store visibility, and Subaru Love Promise activations. Partners bring a mission worth amplifying.
We're guided by the Subaru Love Promise, Subaru of America's national commitment to community, and grounded in the H.E.A.R.T. values that shape how every Subaru retailer is expected to show up: Honesty, Empathy, Appreciation, Respect, and Trust. If that sounds like the kind of partner you're looking for, the next step is a conversation.
Our Guiding Principle
Guided by the Subaru Love Promise
The Love Promise is Subaru's nationwide commitment to showing love and respect to all people at every interaction. Every Subaru retailer is asked to live it locally, through the H.E.A.R.T. values below and through five focus areas that shape how we partner.

Partnership In Action
What this looks like in practice
Every year, the Subaru Share the Love Event lets Subaru retailers direct funds to a Hometown Charity. For the 2023 event, that meant a $23,406 check for Project Hope for the Homeless, money that funds shelter, meals, and recovery support for our neighbors in Lake County.
We presented the check live on Fox 8's New Day Cleveland on April 25, 2024, alongside the Project Hope for the Homeless team: partnership doing what partnership is supposed to do, broadcast across Northeast Ohio. Project Hope for the Homeless is our Hometown Charity again for the 2026 Subaru Share the Love Event.

Working Together
Standards we hold to
Partnership standards
We seek partnerships that share our values, mission, and commitment to the community, and we welcome collaborations that reflect the intent and spirit of the Love Promise. If circumstances change and a partner organization, representative, or affiliated event no longer aligns with these values, we may choose to pause or conclude the partnership. Every decision is made with care, focused on impact, integrity, and mutual respect, and always with the goal of protecting the trust we share with our community.
Storytelling and media use
We love sharing partner stories and celebrating the work we do together. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, content captured by Adventure Subaru may be featured across our digital, print, and broadcast platforms, and may be edited or adapted to reflect Love Promise themes. We don't offer compensation for the use of partner content or likeness, but we're always happy to share when and where your story appears. For public-facing collaborations like on-camera interviews, photography, or broadcast features, we may ask participants to sign an appearance release form so we can showcase our shared efforts with confidence.
