Our History
Inspired by Cars and Coffee events in Irvine, CA, Indianapolis Cars and Coffee® was founded in 2008 by Mark Raza, Casey Szink, and Steve Davis. Over the years, with the vision and leadership of Brian Henry, the event grew from its humble beginnings to host thousands of attendees at locations all over Central Indiana.
We owe a debt of gratitude to our board members, volunteers, sponsors, hosts, and the amazing local car community. It has been a truly spectacular grassroots effort, and we are inspired to continue growing these events and further our mission for years to come.
Today, Indianapolis Cars and Coffee Inc is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, national non-profit charity. We are 1 of 7 registered non-profit Cars & Coffees in the U.S., and the only one in the state of Indiana.
Our Impact
Indianapolis Cars and Coffee® is committed to unifying auto enthusiasts and accelerating a positive impact in our community. We partner with local businesses and other mission-driven organizations to host car-related events that create a safe, memorable experience for all and provide revenue sources for our charity of choice.
We proudly donate proceeds from our revenue sources to Folds of Honor Indiana. In 2025, we raised over $65,000 for the organization, and over $255,000 raised over the last four years!
As a 100% volunteer-based, national non-profit, our board members drive the organization and accelerate our impact.
