Philly to Niagara in Toy Cars

PR Campaign
Saturday 24th October, 2026

Best friends Cassie Aran and Lauren Lee set off from Philadelphia in electric toy cars, aiming to travel 700 miles to Niagara Falls and set a Guinness World Record. The unlikely road trip turns a childhood dream into a newsworthy endurance challenge, while raising money for mental health charity To Write Love On Her Arms; Freddo Toys is supporting the attempt with parts and mechanical help.

Why it worked: The oddball constraint—a 700‑mile Guinness‑verified journey in kids’ cars with live tracking and daily witnesses—turned a stunt into hard news.

The lesson: Consider engineering a measurable endurance test with third‑party verification (trackers, witnesses, daily logs) and a human‑stakes charity tie‑in.

FAQs

What is this?

Every day, brands launch PR campaigns and the media covers them. We scan lots of different news sources and use AI to spot the campaigns behind the stories, and show you which ones are getting the most traction right now. Think of it as a live leaderboard of what's working in PR.

Where does the data come from?

Finchling is a news monitoring tool that analyses lots of news from across the internet.

Does this track sponsored posts, or is it earned media only?

It's built to only track earned media - we use AI to filter out anything that we think is a sponsored placement.

What does "ranked by coverage" mean?

It's ranked by the volume of coverage that talks positively about the campaign. We count the outlets covering it, then give a boost to campaigns whose coverage is positive, and those with negative coverage drop down. We're not weighting by outlet size or reach.

Why isn't my campaign listed?

If you've launched a PR campaign recently and it's not included in here, and you think it should be - drop us a note and we'll investigate.
