Operation Warm - Tri-County United Way

As winter deepens, the importance of community support and generosity is more crucial than ever. That’s why we’re excited to announce a new partnership with North Country Subaru and Operation Warm, aimed at bringing warmth, comfort, and hope local youth throughout our service area.

Driving Hope Together: Operation Warm

We extend our gratitude to North Country Subaru and Operation Warm for partnering with us to expand our community impact and support local families across the region. Operation Warm is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to providing brand-new, high-quality coats and shoes to children in need. By partnering with compassionate individuals, community organizations, and corporations across North America, Operation Warm aims to offer not just physical warmth, but also emotional support, boosting children’s confidence to socialize and succeed. Through these gifts, the organization fosters a sense of hope and community connection, helping to create brighter futures for children facing hardship.

“At North Country Subaru, we believe in making a tangible difference in the lives of those around us,” said Eric Lendrum, General Manager of North Country Subaru. “Partnering with Operation Warm and Tri-County United Way allows us to extend a helping hand to children in our community, ensuring they can face the colder months just a little bit warmer.”

Providing Essentials to Children in Need

Tri-County United Way partners with Operation Warm and North Country Subaru locally to bring this initiative to the communities it serves in the Southern Adirondacks and surrounding areas throughout Washington and Saratoga Counties. By coordinating volunteers, engaging local schools, and facilitating coat distributions, Tri-County United Way helps ensure that children across multiple districts receive the warmth and support they need during winter. This partnership reflects the organization’s broader mission to improve the quality of life in the community through programs that address critical needs.

Offering Confidence: Operation Warm

Operation Warm is part of Subaru of America’s broader commitment to Operation Warm, which has already provided over 150,000 children nationwide with brand new coats, shoes, and socks. North Country Subaru is proud to contribute to this significant milestone and to strengthen its connection with the local community.

The donated coats will be distributed in partnership with area schools that have identified a critical need. Through this initiative, North Country Subaru and Tri-County United Way aim to build a stronger, more supportive community by ensuring that children in need receive the resources to thrive.
