Everyday Heroes Truck Auctions

Supporting the fight against human trafficking
Since 2017, Inland’s Don Blake has championed this unique campaign to raise funds for Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT). Each truck auctioned through the “Everyday Heroes” campaign directly supports TAT’s mission of equipping truck drivers and industry partners to identify and report human trafficking, helping make our roads safer for everyone.

About Truckers Against Trafficking

Established in 2009, Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT) empowers the trucking and transportation industry to combat human trafficking. Through specialized training, strong partnerships with law enforcement, and targeted advocacy, TAT equips drivers and industry professionals to recognize and report trafficking. Their collaborative efforts raise awareness, educate, and drive action to protect victims and dismantle trafficking networks. Driven by a commitment to end human trafficking, TAT is transforming the industry into a powerful force for safety and justice on the roads.

The first truck created to honor Everyday Heroes fighting against human trafficking debuted at Arizona’s state capital, raising $83,000 for Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT).

After years of proudly driving the truck nationwide to spread awareness, the original purchaser donated it back to TAT. Inland facilitated the resale, raising an additional $160,000 for the cause.

The second truck designed for TAT debuted at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., near the U.S. Capitol. The truck and TAT’s display trailer were showcased for several hours, with community leaders speaking on the importance of the cause. This truck raised $162,000 for TAT.

The campaign aimed to raise maximum awareness for the cause, so Inland enlisted a well-known figure in trucking, Greg Evigan, lead actor from B.J. and the Bear. Evigan graciously agreed to film a video highlighting TAT’s mission and promoting the upcoming truck auction. This truck ultimately raised $328,000 for TAT.
