Los Angeles Fire Department Appreciation and Community Event - Mike b
Subaru Sherman Oaks sponsored the event with a huge donation! When Subaru received the invitation to support the event at the fire station very close to them, they did not hesitate and contacted us immediately with the good news of their sponsorship. They committed to have Subaru employee at the event with a new car. THE CAR WAS A SPECIAL TREAT for the attendees. They asked questions and the Subaru employee answered all of their questions. He even handed out special giveaways to attendees. It means a lot to have a neighbor support another neighbor and Subaru did just that. And the community took notice. We are honored to have partnered with your professional team! Subaru Sherman Oaks was the only dealership on auto row to agree to participate! Amazing On behalf of the 818 Week Planning Committee, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for your participation and support of the Second Annual LAFD Firefighter Appreciation Breakfast, "Saluting Our Firefighting Heroes: Breakfast with the Brave." Your support and/or presence helped send a powerful message to the firefighters and first responders who serve the San Fernando Valley every day. It reminded them that their courage, sacrifice, and commitment do not go unnoticed, and that the communities they protect stand proudly with them. We are especially grateful to the elected officials, community leaders, neighborhood councils, sponsors, performers, volunteers, organizations, and residents who gave their time, resources, and energy to make this celebration possible. Your participation reflected the very spirit of 818 Week: many neighborhoods coming together as one community. San Fernando Valley residents gathered at LAFD Fire Station 39 on Saturday, August 22, 2026, for a joyful morning honoring the extraordinary service of the Los Angeles Fire Department. Building on the success of our first year, this second annual celebration grew into an even fuller expression of gratitude, culture, resilience, and Valley unity. DJ Baltazar Radio opened the morning, with IHOP Encino once again hosting and underwriting the breakfast. LAPD Cadets and Girl Scout Troop 3246 led the Pledge of Allegiance, Evangelist Hilda Pierce sang the Star-Spangled Banner, Nahui Ollin Aztec/Mexico performed a ceremonial dance, and Pastor Eli Wells gave the opening prayer. Councilmember Imelda Padilla and San Fernando Mayor Victoria Garcia welcomed the crowd, and performances from Mariachi Juvenil Corazón de Oro, Ararat Dance Studio, and the GALS School Cheerleaders and Dance Team celebrated the Valley's diversity. Sheba Turk of KCAL returned as emcee alongside Edwin Rosales, and Evan Lovett accepted a Valley Treasure Award, introduced by LAUSD Board President Scott Schmerelson. We were deeply honored by the participation and support of public officials and community leaders, including Congressman Brad Sherman, Congresswoman Luz Rivas, Senator Alex Padilla (recorded message), State Senator Caroline Menjivar, Assemblywoman Pilar Schiavo, LAUSD School Board President Scott Schmerelson, LAUSD Board Member Kelly Gonez, Councilmember Imelda Padilla, Mayor Victoria Garcia, and Councilmember Mary Mendoza. We were equally grateful for greetings and support from neighborhood councils throughout the Valley, including the Van Nuys, Panorama City, Sherman Oaks, Granada Hills, Chatsworth, West Hills, and Encino Neighborhood Councils. Residents signed a giant Thank You Portable Mural honoring the LAFD Valley Bureau, a lasting tribute to the department's service. Brenda Watson of Lighthouse Christian Center closed the program in prayer, and our deepest thanks go to every committee member, sponsor, partner, volunteer, performer, official, and resident who made this second celebration possible. This event remains about something simple but powerful: thanking the people who answer the call when our communities need them most. We're grateful for your partnership and look forward to continuing to celebrate and honor those who protect us all. A heartfelt thank you to the more than 70 resource sponsors and supporters who stood behind this year's Breakfast with the Brave. Your generosity, whether in funding, resources, staffing, or simple willingness to show up, made this celebration possible and helped us send an even bigger message of gratitude to the firefighters who serve our Valley every day. We could not do this without you, and we hope you know how much your partnership means to this community. Please see the full list of sponsors and supporters below. Many neighborhoods. One community. One Valley. With pure gratitude!

Subaru Sherman Oaks helps pets find their FURever homes at the Sherman Oaks Street Fair! - Vickie B
Subaru Sherman Oaks has once again shown its incredible commitment to our community by sponsoring the Sherman Oaks Street Fair Pet Zone for the fourth year in a row. Their generous support allows us to partner with local pet rescues at no cost, making a real difference for animals in need. Thanks to Subaru Sherman Oaks, six local rescues were featured at our 33rd annual Street Fair this past October—and we're thrilled to share that they found loving FURever homes for animals in their care. Seeing families meet their new pets for the first time is truly heartwarming, and this wouldn't be possible without Subaru's continued support. We are deeply grateful for everything you do for our community, Subaru Sherman Oaks. Your Love Promise shines through year after year!
TreePeople Thanks Subaru Sherman Oaks! - Brielle C
TreePeople is incredibly grateful for the Solterra that Subaru Sherman Oaks donated to our organization. We are an environmental organization working across various sites in Southern California with large amounts of equipment and plants. When our larger trucks are in use, this car is extremely practical to make quick supply runs from our park to any nearby site. It also creates great engagement when people see our decals on the car - kids get excited when they see it around! Being electric is nice for short trips without wasting gas or creating emission which is very aligned with our mission. Our team in San Fernando Valley also use the Solterra for field days as a team. The car is incredibly spacious for our tools and team members heading to various sites. We are so grateful for this car and continue to put it to regular use to make our work possible.
Wrapped in Warmth, Surrounded by Care - Karla V
For many of the children and young people we serve, staying warm is not something they can take for granted. Too many arrive without coats, socks, or even shoes, facing cold nights with little more than the clothes on their backs. That's why partnerships like this one truly matter. This January, Subaru Sherman Oaks partnered with Operation Warm® and generously donated a collection of high‑quality winter coats to our organization, and the impact has been immediate and deeply felt. The jackets are warm, durable, and thoughtfully made, but what our clients noticed first were the colors. With such a wide assortment, each young person was able to choose a coat that reflects their personality, giving them not just warmth, but a sense of identity and dignity. For youth who have spent so much of their lives feeling unseen, that choice means everything. These coats are more than clothing, they are a reminder that someone cares. We are incredibly grateful to Subaru for supporting our mission and helping ensure that children and teens experiencing hardship can face the cold with confidence, safety, and a little more joy. Their generosity is already making a difference in our community, one warm coat at a time.
Sharing Warmth In Our Community - Gev D
Here at Subaru Sherman Oaks, giving back to our community is a responsibility we take seriously. We're proud to have gotten the opportunity to donate coats to Children of the Night, helping provide warmth, care, and support to vulnerable youth. It's simply our way of lending a hand and helping bring a little warmth and reassurance to kids who need it most.
Subaru of Sherman Oaks Says "Yes" to Taking the Reins - Jane H
Subaru of Sherman Oaks has been a dedicated supporter of Taking the Reins for many years. We feel very grateful to be included as one of their Hometown Charities. The financial benefit and community awareness that this brings to our programs make a big, positive impact on the work that we do. Taking the Reins sees 400 girls each year through our equine, garden, leadership, college-readiness, and environmental science programs. Our recent graduate, Sally H. had this to say as she reflected on her time at TTR, "These horses taught me more than how to ride. They gave me a place to grow into myself, to find my voice, and eventually to help others find theirs too. I now move through the world with strength I once thought impossible." We rely on the support of our community to help girls like Sally. Subaru of Sherman Oaks is the quintessential corporate partner. Their first instinct anytime we tell them a gap we have is "Yes. How can we help?" From our perspective, that kind of willingness and excitement makes us work even harder for our girls and community.
