2022 OUTCOMES

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are core to our culture. It drives how we make decisions and how we treat each other as humans. From our employees to our customers and community, we value each unique story by creating the space for belonging and by working toward a more just world where everyone is celebrated as equal.

Proud To Show Our Colors And Support Our Family

June is always one of our favorites months—the start of event season and the celebration of Utah Pride Month. Once again, we partnered with Project Rainbow to leave our collective “MARK” at over 5,000 houses through their Spreading Love campaign. Utahns across the state signed up to have a Pride Flag placed in their yard during the week of Utah Pride, and an army of more than 200 volunteers helped install the flags in yards. The money raised goes into Project Rainbow’s Community Fund, which finances projects and events that promote LGBTQIA+ visibility in Utah. To kick-off the month, Mark Miller Subaru staff served a Pride breakfast at the VOA Youth Resource Center. Did you know that 40% of those who utilize the Youth Resource Center identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community? Providing a safe space to love and be loved is one of the best ways we can support our community. Join the Spread Love and get a Pride flag in your yard, visit projectrainbowutah.org.

Mark Miller Subaru Stands Against Racism

On International Women’s Day 2022, we featured some of the powerful women who help make Mark Miller Subaru a diverse and wonderful place to work, visit, and do business. IWD is an opportunity to reflect on all that women in our community (including non-binary, transgender, and women of color) have done to fight for equality, inclusion, diversity, empathy, respect, and so much more! In fact, we were honored to work with our Loves Diversity partner, YWCA Utah, to further this effort. Today and every day is a time to honor and thank women who have paved the path for future generations of young women. We supported and partnered in their Stand Against Racism Challenge to help further everyone’s learning in race equity and focus on ways to dismantle racism as a community.

Making Art And Building Awareness For Ywca Utah

The Utah Arts Festival is an amazing event that showcases artists across the state. Last year we supported the festival and had a booth with YWCA Utah in the Emerging Artists section to help explore artists who are breaking barriers in our community. The Emerging Artists program provides opportunities and a platform for under-recognized artists to show their work and evolve in a variety of genres and mediums. Mark Miller Subaru and YWCA Utah were spreading awareness on the work of the organization and letting participants make free spin art creations. When we come together to break barriers, anything is possible!
