Berkshire Humane Society and Haddad Subaru have launched their 13th annual “Choose Your Subaru” car raffle. One lucky winner will have their choice of a 2026 Subaru Crosstrek Limited, Forester Premium or Outback Premium with an extended warranty and three years of free maintenance. Tickets are $40 each or three for $100. The winner will be drawn on Saturday, October 25 at 1pm at Berkshire Humane Society, 214 Barker Road, Pittsfield, MA 01201.
Tickets are available in Pittsfield at Berkshire Humane Society’s Dr. John Reynolds Adoption and Education Center (main shelter), Wellness Clinic and Haddad Subaru, in Williamstown at Nature’s Closet, in North Adams at Roxie’s Barkery, in Lanesboro at Baker’s Golf Center, in Richmond at Bartlett’s Orchard, in Lenox at Chez Pet and Catwalk Boutique, in Great Barrington at Catwalk Boutique and Purradise and in South Egremont at The Shop at Only in My Dreams Events. They are also available by calling the shelter at 413-447-7878 extension 131.
The raffle is limited to 2,400 tickets. If at least 1,000 tickets are not sold, the raffle will convert to a 50/50 drawing.
“Our partnership with Berkshire Humane Society is stronger than ever,” said Chris Kramek, General Manager and Vice President of Haddad Subaru. “This year, the need is even greater. John and his team are continuing to face rising costs for food, veterinary care and everyday expenses. That’s why we’re determined to make this year’s raffle the best yet. Get your tickets early because we fully expect to sell out!”
“Haddad Subaru does so many great things for us,” said John Perreault, Executive Director of Berkshire Humane Society. “They help us raise money with the Subaru raffle — our biggest fundraiser of the year. Last year they designated us as a hometown charity in their Share the Love event, for which they just presented us a check for $9,000. They also help us secure grants and they underwrite an animal adoption each week for up to $2,600 annually. On top of that, they tell their customers about us. A Haddad Subaru showroom conversation with a married couple from Westfield who had just lost their dog led to the adoption of Morty. Morty, a wonderful senior dog, had been in and out of the shelter looking for a permanent home for about a year. Now he’s happy at home, not only with a family who absolutely loves him, but a new Subaru as well!” Perreault said.
Berkshire Humane Society has an annual budget of more than $3 million, touching the lives of approximately 13,500 animals each year through adoption and surrender, medical care, spay/neuters, vaccine clinics, a Wellness Center, Pet Food Bank and Family Dog School. The Society’s education programs reach hundreds of school children annually and a SafePet Program provides free, temporary pet care for people in crisis.
“Companion animals and their people in our community depend on you,” said Perreault. All proceeds benefit animal shelter services and programs.
