We invite you to join us for the 2nd Annual Big Unit Gala on Thursday, September 10, 2026, from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at the River Club in Mequon. Whether you attend as a guest, sponsor, or donate to our silent auction, your involvement will directly benefit the Big Unit Foundation’s mission.

 

The Big Unit Foundation is dedicated to supporting military members, veterans, first responders, and their families through charitable donations. Operated entirely by volunteers, 100% of the proceeds from this event will go toward our mission, ensuring every contribution makes a meaningful impact.

 

This year’s gala will feature a special on stage interview with Pat Murphy, Manager of the Milwaukee Brewers, led by Bill Michaels, a Wisconsin sports radio legend and longtime advocate for our military and first responder communities. This rare opportunity allows guests to experience Pat Murphy in an intimate setting sharing stories, leadership lessons, and perspectives seldom heard outside the clubhouse. The conversation is sure to be a highlight of the evening and a truly memorable experience for our supporters.

 

Join us for a memorable evening filled with the tunes from DJ Redd of Ring Tones, bidding on amazing silent and live auction items, and most importantly creating positive change in the lives of our military service members.
