Walker’s Renton Subaru and Subaru of America donated $24,000 to the Friends of Renton Schools on March 18 to provide funding for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) programs for students in the district.

The donation was a part of Subaru’s “Share the Love” event, where Subaru customers, who purchased or leased a new vehicle between Nov. 21 to Jan. 2 contributed a $250 donation to any of five national charities or made a local donation to Friends of Renton Schools foundation.

“Providing these funds to our local schools is something that I and my team here at Walker’s Renton Subaru believe in,” said owner Dale Walker in a press release. “A high quality school system benefits our entire community.”

Walker’s Renton Subaru staff sold or leased enough cars during the event to be the number one selling dealer in the Northwest zone and third in the U.S. among 641 dealers nationwide. Subaru of America has donated $35 million to charitable partners during the annual “Share the Love” event.
