Help Support Local Students at the Fitzgerald Auto Malls School Supply Drive in Clearwater, FL

At Fitzgerald Subaru Clearwater, we believe being part of the community means giving back to the families, students, and teachers who help make Clearwater such a special place to live and work. That is why we are proud to participate in the Fitzgerald Auto Malls School Supply Drive in partnership with the Pinellas Education Foundation for a second consecutive year.

As students and teachers prepare for the upcoming school year, many local classrooms still need essential supplies. Thanks to incredible community support last year, four 30-gallon totes filled with school supplies were donated to children and schools in need throughout the area.

This year, Fitzgerald Subaru Clearwater hopes to help make an even greater impact across the Clearwater and Pinellas County communities.
