Join us for the 6th Annual Veteran Champions Club Gala on May 16, 2026, at the National Veterans Memorial and Museum—an evening honoring service, celebrating a record-breaking year of impact, and recognizing Warren E. Mott for his lifelong dedication to preserving the stories of our nation’s veterans.
This year, we gather to celebrate a record-breaking milestone—27 life-changing veteran–dog placements in 2025—and to honor Warren E. Mott, Founder of Motts Military Museum, with the Champions of Veterans Award.
For decades, Warren has preserved the stories of America’s veterans, ensuring their service and sacrifice are never forgotten. His legacy of stewardship and remembrance reflects the very heart of the Veteran Champions Club.

Throughout the evening, you will:
- Hear powerful stories from VCAS veterans
