FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – The Dan Marino Foundation was selected as North Fort Lauderdale Subaru’s Hometown Charity for its Share the Love Event. As a result, the Dan Marino Foundation was awarded more than $14,000 by Subaru for the fundraising campaign.

During the Subaru Share the Love Event which ran November 2020 – January 2021, North Fort Lauderdale Subaru donated $50 to the Dan Marino Foundation for every new Subaru vehicle it sold or leased and $5 for every routine service visit.

North Fort Lauderdale Subaru’s Managing Partner Wael Ghali presented Susan Morantes, Executive Administrative Director for the Dan Marino Foundation, with the check during a special presentation at the dealership on June 10, 2021.

The Dan Marino Foundation was selected as North Fort Lauderdale Subaru’s Hometown Charity because of the work it does respecting and embracing the potential of individuals with autism. The Foundation has and continues to lead innovation and change with its mission to “empower individuals with autism and other disabilities”.

“We rely so much on our local businesses like North Fort Lauderdale Subaru,” said Mary Partin, CEO of Dan Marino Foundation. “Wael and his team, clearly understand the value of each person and the importance of maximizing everyone’s potential. We are grateful for the contribution and know this will impact many”.

Over the last 12 years, through the Subaru Share the Love Event, Subaru of America, Inc., and its retailers have donated more than $176 Million to both national and hometown charities.
