We are dedicated to ensuring that students in the Renton School District have the best educational opportunities possible.

In our ongoing efforts to support education initiatives in Renton, we have also partnered with Communities in Schools of Renton to help equip students with much-need school supplies and funding for after-school enrichment programs as well as providing students with mentoring where needed. Walker's Renton Subaru is also proud to participate in Renton River Days, our hometown's 3-day family & community festival.

Walker's Renton Subaru Donates Pet Supplies - Cody N
On November 4th, Walker's Renton Subaru had the opportunity to donate shelter supply kits, toys and pet food to Seattle Humane. After a tour of the facilities, we had a chance to play with playful pup Kava and cute cats Jiggs and Jelly. At Walker's Renton Subaru, we love to help our community! We hope that this small donation of doggie bags, tennis balls, chew toys and more will make an impact in the lives of pets renting a room at Seattle Humane. Walker’s Renton Subaru looks forward to working with Seattle Humane again soon!
Walker's Renton Provides Comfort to Patients - Katie J
On July 29, Walker’s Renton Subaru made a big difference in the lives of blood cancer patients. Each year since 2016, they partner with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to delivery warm, top-of-the-line, blankets and arts and crafts kits to patients at Valley Medical Center. These gifts are very helpful to patients who are undergoing cancer treatment because they provide comfort during a very uncomfortable process. We were able to surprise two patients who were in treatment at the time we arrived and they were very thankful to Walker’s Renton Subaru for providing this for them. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society exists to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma and help improve the quality of life of patients like Mr. Eng pictured here. Thank you to Walker’s Renton Subaru for choosing to care for patients in the Renton community fighting blood cancers and for helping fund life-saving cancer research and support programs.

Thank you Walkers Renton Subaru! - Pam T
The Renton Schools Foundation is honored to be a partner with Walker’s Renton Subaru and Subaru’s “Share the Love Event”. Dale and the team raised over $80,000 to support students in the Renton School District. Some of this generous donation was used to support all Renton Elementary schools with a piece of digital literacy software called, MyOn. In six short months, elementary students at school and at home have accessed this massive digital library and have read 105,943 books or have read 1,251,224 minutes! Here is a direct quote from Kat B, a teacher at Renton Park Elementary. “Our 4th-grade team loves MyOn. Our students use it for their research when we cover the American Revolution. MyOn also provides access to popular books and graphic novels so more students can read them at once.” Thank you, Walker’s Renton Subaru and “Share the Love” for your commitment to the Renton Schools Foundation. Because of YOU, the Renton Schools Foundation is able to provide enhanced learning opportunities for thousands of students in our schools.
