Findlay Subaru of Las Vegas

25th Anniversary Partner

Princess, who had been trembling since arriving on site, wagged her tail as Marley came closer. As the two connected for the first time, Marley, dressed in tie-dyed overalls and sunglasses, was overcome with joy. Onlookers held back tears as the moment unfolded, and Princess snuggled into the arms of her new best friend.

“I thought we were going to the doctor!” Marley exclaimed to the smiling crowd. The little girl has been making the trek from her home in Pahrump, Nevada to Las Vegas for cancer treatments every other week for the past two years. So frequently, in fact, that Marley has memorized the route. When the family took an unfamiliar turn, she perked up in the backseat, assuming that they were taking a little shopping trip. Little did she know that her wish was coming true.

“For us here at Subaru of Las Vegas, love is at the center of everything that we do – it’s how we live our day,” said Jennifer Vitale, assistant general manager. “Any interactions we have we just try to show love as far and as deep as possible. We were so excited to be able to make Marley’s wish come true today, and we look forward to many more.”

After allowing everyone in the dealership the chance to pet her new puppy and posing for photos, it was time for the family to show Princess her new home.

“She’s really gonna miss you guys!” the little girl yelled out the window as the family’s truck pulled out of the parking lot.

We have a feeling that the little pup is right where she was meant to be.

From wish reveals and vehicle makeovers to signature event sponsorships, Findlay Subaru of Las Vegas is the definition of an excellent community partner. Each employee is referred to as a family member and they have extended that courtesy to Make-A-Wish Southern Nevada. It comes as no surprise then that the team at Findlay Subaru treats each wish kid like a member of their extended family.

Before Marley even saw her puppy, she was blown away by the heartfelt touches that Findlay Subaru had waiting for her. The moment Marley spotted her new puppy, the tears started flowing for everyone in the room.Findlay Subaru was able to take this wish to the next level just like they do for every wish they touch. We are better because of them.
