Media Kit

One-of-a-kind fundraiser will feature a car cruise down the California coastline, a car show, and a benefit dinner at the Seaside Lagoon in Redondo Beach to fuel the fight against human trafficking

Irvine, CA (November 2025) – The Slave 2 Nothing Foundation® is proud to host its annual Cruisin’ 2 Freedom car cruise, car show, and dinner on Saturday, January 17, 2026, to support organizations that educate, prevent, and fight to eliminate human trafficking in our communities.

Guests are invited to drive a pre-designated route down the California coastline in classic cars reminiscent of those on In-N-Out® T-shirts. Appealing to generations of car enthusiasts, the Cruisin’ 2 Freedom car show will feature muscle cars, classics, hot rods, and rugged off-road 4×4 vehicles.

After the nine-mile drive, which ends at the Seaside Lagoon in Redondo Beach, guests will experience an unforgettable benefit dinner. They will learn how to make a difference in the fight against human trafficking, assemble care kits for trafficking survivors, and enjoy a Double-Double® made fresh to order from the In-N-Out Burger® Cookout trucks.

All attendees will be able to participate in special raffle giveaways, bid on exciting silent and live auction items, and receive a commemorative T-shirt and gift.

“We’re very proud to host Cruisin’ 2 Freedom during National Human Trafficking Prevention Month, where we’ll enjoy In-N-Out’s car culture, but, more importantly, raise greater awareness of human trafficking and help survivors and their families gain freedom and healing,” said Lynsi Snyder-Ellingson, co-founder of the Slave 2 Nothing Foundation.

“In addition to the work of Slave 2 Nothing, the In-N-Out Burger Foundation® also plays a vital role in protecting some of the most vulnerable, including children who have experienced abuse, neglect, or instability in the foster care system. These young people are statistically more at risk of exploitation, and by supporting them early, we can help prevent them from becoming enslaved. Every child deserves a life free from fear, and full of possibility, and we’re deeply grateful to all who support this worthy cause because every life is worth fighting for,” Snyder-Ellingson said.

The car cruise will begin at 2:00 p.m., the car show will begin at 3:00 p.m., and the dinner will begin at 5:00 p.m. at the Seaside Lagoon, 200 Portofino Way, Redondo Beach, California.

Dinner guest admission is $75, and car show entry with dinner admission is $100.

All monies raised from registration and donations will directly support the Slave 2 Nothing Foundation to help fight human trafficking. In 2025, the Slave 2 Nothing Foundation funded 60 anti-human trafficking organizations providing direct services to those needing help.

Donations of any amount are appreciated from anyone unable to attend. In-N-Out Burger covers all costs associated with the Slave 2 Nothing Foundation, ensuring that 100% of every dollar raised at this event goes to organizations that create, educate, and assist with solutions to eliminate human trafficking.
