Huffines Subaru Shares the LoveHuffines Subaru has supported Serve Denton since 2015. Their management and employees started off by volunteering at the Denton Mobile Pantry, a free monthly food pantry with Tarrant Area Food Bank and Denton Hunger Coalition that takes place in the Serve Denton parking lot. Their employees also partnered with members from Texas Woman's University to build a professionally designed butterfly garden at The Wheeler House, a Serve Denton project. The Wheeler House is a transitional housing facility for moms and their kids in a housing crisis managed by Giving Hope, Inc. and an affordable health clinic managed by Health Services of North Texas. The butterfly garden will become a teaching and learning garden for the children living at The Wheeler House and will help promote the national campaign to expand suitable habitats for butterflies along the I-35 corridor between Mexico and Canada. Texas native plant gardens support the butterflies as they undertake their annual migration by proving milkweed plants for their caterpillars to eat. The other native flowering plants provide nectar, which sustain the adult butterflies as well as support the bees and birds. After their national conference, Subaru donated items, which are now being used in the office, classroom and play therapy rooms used by our 11 nonprofit tenant agencies. Huffines Subaru chose Serve Denton as the local charity for their 2016 Share the Love campaign, which resulted in a check for $35,000 for Serve Denton.
