30 luxury sports cars through Charleston, Savannah, Jacksonville, Palm Beach, and Miami– A four-day journey taken by a community of influential women from Cash & Rocket. As they wrapped up another successful fundraising U.S. Car Tour, the international philanthropic organization continues the pursuit of uniting women to create lasting impact.
Founded in 2011 by Julie Brangstrup, Cash & Rocket is as a sisterhood of women whose passions for philanthropy are a force for change. Standing on the foundation that “when women unite, anything is possible,” the sisterhood hosts fundraising events for various charitable causes. Since it’s inception, Cash & Rocket has raised over $6.6 million with the power of 2,800 women. Continuing their goal of raising $15 million by 2030, this team continues to shape the convergence of philanthropy, luxury, womanhood, and community.

The Car Tour officially kicked off in Charleston, where the atmosphere emitted community and connection. The team partnered with local non profit, Impact Charleston, which provides mentorship and education for underprivileged youth. Drivers picked up their iconic red gear at The Cooper Hotel, and took off to Middleton Place in a motorcade of luxury vehicles. In the evening, the group convened on Tobacco Street for a Cash & Rocket takeover. The team also partnered with Astrea London, known for its ethically sourced, lab-grown diamonds. As the team partied along the water, notable Southern Charm cast members include Shep Rose, Tyler Dugas, Rodrigo Reyes, Salley Carson, and Whitney Sudler-Smith, alongside tour participants such as Olympic equestrian Mathilda Karlsson, and influencer Rachel “Rocky” Barnes. The night was closed out with a performance by singer and actress Jackie Cruz.


The tour continued with a scenic stop in Savannah before continuing onto Jacksonville. Cash & Rocket founder and CEO, Julie Brangstrup commenced with a panel discussion, later joined by Aida Al Busaidy AVP of Consumer Advocacy at Dubai Economy and Tourism, and Liza Lamar, Business Development Consultant for UK Sotheby’s International Realty, to explore future opportunities in Dubai. The night gracefully concluded with a welcome dinner, enriching the fellowship of the group.

In Palm Beach, the tour heavily focused on the philanthropic endeavors of the organization. Miss Petite Pilates led a peaceful Pilates session at The Palm House Hotel, where participants wore comfortable pink athleisure by Left on Friday and engaged in a pause for relaxation. The evening fundraising event campaigned in support of Style Saves, a Florida-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing essential items for youth and families, as well as South African organization Sumbandila, providing scholarship and education programs for academically outstanding students. The evening was joined by guest speaker Catherine Lapadula, managing director of UBS international, as well as notable attendees including Mathilda Karlsson and Victoria’s Secret model Vita Sidorkina.

The four-day excursion finished off in the Miami Design District, where all 30 luxury cars assembled and turned NE 41st Street into a public car display and charity supported by partner Isa Grutman. One Thousand Group hosted a private evening cocktail reception with Anantara Miami Resort & Residences, followed by a fundraising soirée benefiting Style Saves. Guests indulged in an evening of charity and allure. Live entertainment included Jackie Cruz, Liset Alea (Nouvelle Vague), The Hornies, and Kate Ozz, as well as cocktails by Tito’s Vodka, Whispering Angel Rosé, and El Cristiano Tequila.

“The Cash & Rocket US Tour 2026 has been nothing short of extraordinary,” shares Brangstrup. “From the moment we rolled into Charleston to our Grand Finale in Miami, every mile reminded us why we do this — to celebrate remarkable women, create moments of genuine connection, and make a real difference to the causes closest to our hearts.”
This new chapter for Cash & Rocket continues the organization’s venture of strengthening sisterhood in the act of giving back. The fundraising Car Tour event will expand to two annual international tours, with another one in Spain in September. This is only the beginning for Cash & Rocket, and the achievements of this tour reflect the influential words of Brangstrup, “we can achieve more together than we can alone.”
