This year’s donations to benefit patients with cancer, those managing chronic health conditions

Subaru also announced a $15,000 donation to the LLS to support a transportation fund for Camden patients undergoing cancer treatment.
“Subaru continues to be a very generous leader and neighbor in Camden.

Norcross III, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Cooper Health System, Cooper University Hospital, and MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper. "With these new gifts and all Subaru does for the city, it is certainly fulfilling its 'Love Promise' to Camden."

We are thankful for the creative and generous ways Subaru is making a difference in the community,” said Anthony J. Mazzarelli, MD, JD, MBE, co-CEO of Cooper.
“Helping our Camden community get and stay healthy is what Subaru Loves to Care month is all about, so we are thrilled to help support our neighbors with chronic health conditions receive the medical equipment they need to stay healthy at home,” said Shira Haaz, Corporate Responsibility Manager, Subaru of America, Inc. “Subaru also understands that there are a lot of unexpected out-of-pocket costs associated with cancer treatment, so we hope that the transportation fund alleviates some of the burdens on our community members living with cancer.”
