The gift is from the Subaru Share the Love Event, in which Subaru of America donated $250 for every new Subaru sold Nov. 14-Jan. 2 at the local dealership and Reliable Subaru added $50 to each sale contribution. In over 10 years running the event, officials say Subaru has given $145 million to various charities nationwide.

The chamber’s monthly breakfast meetings have moved to the Zoom and Facebook Live platforms during COVID-19 public gathering restrictions.
