Norfolk, Va. (Dec. 5, 2022) – Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia (Senior Services) is proud to announce that it will be participating in the 15th annual Subaru Share the Love Event, as a member of Meals on Wheels America – one of four national Share the Love charitable partners supported through the campaign. From November 17, 2022, through January 3, 2023, Subaru of America will donate $250 for every new Subaru vehicle purchased or leased to the customer’s choice of participating charities.

Participating Meals on Wheels America members, like Senior Services, will receive a share of the donation raised by Subaru in their state. Senior Services will be participating in activities throughout the campaign period to raise awareness for the popular year-end sales and giving event, and drive support for Meals on Wheels.

“As a proud Meals on Wheels America member agency, Senior Services is excited to participate in the 2022 Share the Love® campaign,” said SSEVA CEO Steve Zollos. “The Share the Love® campaign raises awareness about the serious issue of older adult hunger in our local communities and helps to open doors for community partnerships to support our programs that help older adults stay healthy, active, and socially engaged.”

Your donations of essential unused goods will directly assist older adults right here in our community. Critical unused items include cold weather gear, toiletries, blankets, hair care products, emergency thermal blankets, laundry supplies, and towels.
