Milwaukee-Area Dealerships Surpass 550 Vehicles Sold, Pledge to Continue Donating Until 1,000-Car Milestone Is Met
DELAVAN, Wis., April 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Kunes Auto & RV Group, one of the Midwest’s fastest-growing automotive and recreational vehicle dealership groups, today announced it will extend its United Way fundraising campaign beyond March after its three Milwaukee-area locations sold 582 vehicles during the month, generating $58,200 in support for United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County’s Reducing Barriers to Employment & Advancement program.
The company is now pledging to continue donating $100 per vehicle sold until it reaches its goal of 1,000 total vehicles and $100,000 raised.
“We made a commitment to this community and intend to keep it,” said Brian Bohm, Kunes’ Milwaukee Area Regional Director. “The goal was always to raise $100,000 for families in Milwaukee who need real support, and this community deserves nothing less.”
Launched March 1 across Kunes Buick GMC of Oak Creek, Kunes Buick GMC of Greenfield and Kunes Hope Chevrolet, the campaign directly supports Milwaukee residents facing transportation and driver’s license barriers to employment through United Way’s Reducing Barriers to Employment & Advancement program, which provides transportation assistance and resources to help individuals access jobs, job training and essential services.
For Kunes, this extension reflects a broader culture of community investment that has defined the company since its founding. Guided by a philosophy of Faith, Family, and Giving Back, the company donates 10% of its net profits annually through the Kunes Family Foundation, directing more than $1 million each year to community organizations, charities, and missions focused on helping people in need.
