RED BANK, NJ – The Count Basie Center for the Arts has been selected as one of two local nonprofit organizations for the Subaru Share the Love Event at Circle Subaru in Tinton Falls. From November 19, 2026, through January 4, 2027, customers who purchase or lease a new Subaru can select the Basie Center to receive a $250 donation at no additional cost to them.

Donations directed to the Basie will support its arts education programs at the Count Basie Center Turner Academy of the Arts. Through student productions, group classes and private instruction, students have the opportunity to develop their talents, build confidence and connect with others.

“Arts education gives students a place to discover their talent and creativity while giving them the confidence to take that discovery into every part of their lives,” said Adam Philipson, President and CEO of the Count Basie Center for the Arts. “We’re grateful to the DeFelice family, Joe Wajda and the Circle Subaru team for making the Basie Center part of this year’s Share the Love Event, and to every customer who chooses to support these opportunities for our students.”

The Basie Center joins 180 Turning Lives Around as Circle Subaru’s selected organizations for this year’s event.

“Share the Love gives our customers a chance to make a difference right here in our community,” said Joe Wajda, Executive Manager & Managing Partner at Circle Subaru. “We’re proud to support the Count Basie Center for the Arts which has such a profound impact on the lives of so many students who call this area home. We look forward to helping our customers turn a new vehicle purchase into support for a deserving cause.”

Customers can choose to support the Basie Center when purchasing or leasing a new Subaru during the event.

Circle Subaru is located at 688 Shrewsbury Ave., Tinton Falls, NJ 07701. For more information about the Share the Love Event or to browse available vehicles, visit circlesubaru.com.
