Hey Morton Surprises Former Foster Youth with a Brand New Subaru

 
This week, the Benztown-syndicated morning show, Hey Morton moved listeners with the story of Sherell—a resilient young woman who recently aged out of the foster care system. Sherell joined hosts Rick Morton, Edina Macic, and D-Rock to share her emotional journey and her hopes for the future.
 
What she didn’t know was that something extraordinary was about to happen.
 
In partnership with Just in Time for Foster Youth, a San Diego-based nonprofit, and Summit Subaru El Cajon, the Hey Morton team surprised Sherell with a brand new Subaru. The gift wasn’t just a car—it was a pathway to independence, employment, and the chance to begin reuniting with her siblings still in the foster system.
 
The emotional reveal was captured live on the show and shared across social media, where it struck a chord with listeners and viewers alike.
 
Giving back has always been a cornerstone of Hey Morton’s mission, and this unforgettable moment is just one example of how the show uses its platform to uplift and inspire.
