CAMDEN, N.J., August 1, 2024 /3BL/ - Subaru of America, Inc. (SOA) today announced that a milestone of 750,000 students nationwide will be helped following its Subaru Loves Learning® program this year. In its fourth year partnering with AdoptAClassroom.org®, Subaru and more than 630 of its retailers will continue to provide access to the critical supplies and resources that teachers need to help their students succeed in the classroom.

According to AdoptAClassroom.org, 92% of teachers nationwide have students whose families cannot afford to purchase school supplies for their children. This has led to teachers spending an average of $860 per year to help provide for their classrooms.

**Alan Bethke, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Subaru of America, Inc.:** “At Subaru, we believe that every student deserves a fair opportunity at a quality education. We are incredibly proud of the progress achieved in supporting over 750,000 students, and we know the importance of continuing to support students and teachers around the country to have the best learning environment possible.”

Together, Subaru and its retailers are working to help students in high-needs\* schools by providing teachers across the country with funding to purchase these supplies and resources. Many participating retailers will also be donating school supply kits with materials that are highly requested by teachers.

**Ann Pifer, Executive Director of AdoptAClassroom.org:** “This record number of students being supported would not be possible without the help of the Subaru community. We are grateful to extend our partnership with Subaru for a fourth year in a row and sincerely thank Subaru and its retailers for the difference they make in the lives and educational opportunities of students and teachers around the country.”

To kick off the 2024 program, Subaru will continue to support students in the [Camden City School District](https://camdencityschools.org/) (CCSD) by once again adopting all kindergarten to fifth grade (K-5) classrooms near the automaker’s headquarters in Camden, NJ. This latest hometown effort will impact over 2,090 students and 122 classrooms across eight different schools. Adopting every elementary school in the CCSD is just one of the many ways Subaru continues to do its part to be More Than a Car Company® for its community.
