Event Details

The Big Z Classic is an annual golf tournament that brings our community together to honor the legacy of Zach Hoefler. This special event is more than just a day on the greens—it’s a mission-driven celebration of generosity and support for families navigating the challenges of pediatric illness.

Every dollar raised through The Big Z Classic goes directly toward providing grants to families facing overwhelming hardships, including mounting medical bills, travel expenses for treatment, lost wages due to caregiving, and the everyday costs of maintaining a sense of normalcy for their children. These grants give families the breathing room they need to focus on what truly matters—caring for their child’s health and well-being.

The impact is profound: more support means more grants, and more grants mean more families can find hope and stability during their most difficult times. With the help of golfers, sponsors, and donors, The Big Z Classic continues to embody Zach's spirit of kindness and compassion, changing lives one family at a time.

Whether you’re a seasoned golfer, a first-time player, or simply passionate about making a difference, your involvement ensures that we can provide even more families with the support they need to face the challenges ahead. Together, we can ease their burdens and create a brighter future for those who need it most.
