Subaru of Pembroke Pines Provides Donations to Two Hometown Charities

The funds were raised during the 2023/2024 Subaru Share the Love Event.

During the Subaru Share the Love Event, Subaru of Pembroke Pines donated over $89,000 to two hometown charities, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and the Humane Society of Broward County. For every new Subaru vehicle purchased or leased from Nov. 16, 2023, to Jan. 2, 2024, Subaru donated $300 to a hometown charity of the customer’s choosing.

Each year, Craig Zinn, president and CEO of Craig Zinn Automotive Group, generously matches the campaign’s funds raised. In the current year, Subaru of Pembroke Pines collected $58,433 for Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and $30,850 for the Humane Society of Broward County.

Zinn presented the donations to the recipients at a recent check presentation ceremony hosted at Subaru of Pembroke Pines. Joining him were executives from the Craig Zinn Automotive Group, including Vice President and COO Tony Stampone, Corporate Sales Executive Zachary Zinn, Executive Vice President and Group General Manager Patrick Nasto, Vice President of Corporate Affairs Marc Adler and Subaru of Pembroke General Manager Duane Massa.

At the event, Memorial Healthcare System was represented by President and CEO Scott Wester, Senior Vice President and President of Foundations Kevin Janser, Director of Physician Practices at Memorial Physicians Group Babette Kosar, and Senior Director of External Affairs for Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Jessica Usina. Vice President and Chief Development Officer Kathy Tricomi and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors Christy Gumberg also represented the Humane Society of Broward County.

The funds will support a wide range of Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital services. The hospital recently expanded its Hollywood location from four to eight floors and established an animal-assisted therapy endowment. Zinn will initially cover the program’s needs and work towards building a $500,000 endowment to generate income from interest and fund the program indefinitely. This endowment will provide essential funding to acquire an extra therapy dog for Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and cover the additional costs associated with having another handler on staff.

The funds raised for the Humane Society of Broward County will help to fund various initiatives, such as clinics, behavior training, shelter services, and other programs aimed at promoting animal welfare across South Florida. The goal is to find loving forever homes for our furry friends.

“Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and the Humane Society of Broward County are pillars of strength in our community,” Zinn says. “It’s a true privilege to continue our partnership with these extraordinary organizations and continue to support their crucial efforts through the Subaru Share the Love Event.”

Subaru of Pembroke Pines has contributed to the Subaru Share the Love program, donating over $1.6 million to the local community. They actively support various local initiatives and have contributed more than $1.1 million to Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital since 2018. Additionally, they have donated over $81,700 to the Humane Society of Broward County since the 2021 Children Subaru Share the Love Event.

Subaru of Pembroke Pines upholds The Subaru Love Promise by making tangible commitments to the community through philanthropic endeavors. Beyond monetary contributions, the dealership engages in year-long initiatives that significantly impact various community organizations, charities, and causes.

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
