  2. 2 | Subaru “Share the Love” event Special Olympics Activation Toolkit Campaign Overview Special Olympics has been selected by Subaru to be one of five organizations to participate in their fourth annual “Share the Love” event. This year’s promotion will be held from November 19, 2011 – January 3, 2012. As in previous years, a donation of $250 is made for every new Subaru vehicle sold or leased during the promotion to one of five organizations as selected by the consumer. This year’s charities are: American Forests, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA®), Make-A-Wish Foundation, Meals on Wheels® Association of America, and Special Olympics. Subaru has donated nearly $15 million to charitable causes since the program’s inception three years ago. During the purchase process the consumer is presented by the dealer with pre-approved collateral asking them to designate their preferred charity. If they do not make their selection at the time of purchase, a follow-up card is mailed to them to solicit the charity selection. If the customer does not select a charity at all, the $250 is split amongst all five participating charities.

  15. 15 | Subaru “Share the Love” event Special Olympics Activation Toolkit • Talking Points for Subaru • Inspiring Subaru Employees to Embrace Fundraising PromotionBelow, we’ve created some talking points or communication messages you can use with Subaru management in discussing whether you may visit their stores to help energize or even just educate employees. • To celebrate our partnership and to introduce our mission and our movement to your employees, we would appreciate the opportunity to come into your dealership to thank your employees in person and talk to them about Special Olympics, particularly in case they should receive questions from consumers about our organization during the “Share the Love” event. We would also appreciate the opportunity to talk to your employees about ways to experience Special Olympics as a volunteer, such as at our very popular [Upcoming Event, Polar Plunge, Summer Games] taking place on [DATE]. • We could help you prepare your employees for this year’s fundraising campaign by: • Explaining what Special Olympics is and what it is that we do • Explaining why Special Olympics is part of this year’s campaign • Explaining why Subaru supports Special Olympics • Additionally, we’d like to help you not only train employees to implement the promotion but to galvanize employees to reach for the stars! In our • experience, the most successful employees are the most energized and knowledgeable about their nonprofit partners. • That’s what we can deliver to your employees: energy, enthusiasm and the Special Olympics experience! We can help you: [share with them the tactics your Program could deliver]: • Bring an athlete to speak at a staff meeting • Bring an athlete to meet-and-greet with employees at Subaru dealers • Provide a DVD* for each dealer to play in their break room for their employees to introduce them to Special Olympics (Only if your Program has a DVD or YouTube video that you’ve used to create excitement or share the Special Olympics experience) • We will contact you in the coming weeks to discuss how Special Olympics [Program] can help make this year’s campaign an overwhelming success and to thank you and your employees personally for allowing us to be part of the partnership. • Signature

  16. 16 | Subaru “Share the Love” event Special Olympics Activation Toolkit • Activation Events • Individual Subaru dealers MAY participate locally with any of the five participating charities during the promotion. In the past, most dealers have opted to engage with zero, one or two of their charity partners. Activation for this promotion does NOT require you to reach out to all of the dealers or zone offices in your state. However, if they contact you, we ask that you work with them to include them at an existing event or possibly to create one with them at their dealership. • It’s ok to reach out to Subaru dealers in your state. BUT – please remember, each Subaru dealer is ALREADY participating in the Subaru “Share the Love” event through the national promotion. They are not required to do any more locally, but some could choose to do so. • Subaru is organized into three Zones. These Zones work with dealers in their regions and these Zone staff members may also elect to participate with Special Olympics locally. • Eastern: New Jersey (Cherry Hill), DC, Atlanta, Orlando. • Central: Chicago, Columbus, Dallas, Minneapolis. • West: Denver, Portland, LA, San Francisco. • Their headquarters is in Cherry Hill, NJ. • Tracy DeVries will be the primary point of contact to each of the zone contacts. In theory the zones will notify Tracy of interest in participating locally by either a dealership or a zone office and she will then make the introductions to the relevant state Program. However, Programs might hear from a dealer directly—great! If so, please let Tracy know what your plans are so that she can share with other Programs, Subaru dealers and Subaru’s national office. • If you participated with a dealer or zone office, we will ask you for the following at the end of the Subaru “Share the Love” event: • A written summary of the event or interaction. • Photos of Subaru employees interacting with athletes or other Special Olympics representatives. • Quotes from either Subaru or Special Olympics representative about the event. • Any media highlights that resulted.
