Our Story …

We are excited to announce that we're taking part in Shitbox Rally Spring 2024!

For those who don't know about the Shitbox Rally, it is an amazing event that brings together people from across Australia to raise money for Cancer Council. The rally involves driving a car that is worth just $1,500 across Australia via some of its most formidable roads, all for charity. This year's spring rally will take us 3400kms from Bendigo to Townsville!

As part of the terms of the rally, all teams have to raise a minimum of $5,000, so any donation you can give is greatly appreciated.

The Spring 2024 rally fundraising target is set at $2,000,000 plus, with all funds going to the Cancer Council.

We are extremely proud to be doing our part to support such a worthy charity.

Please make sure to follow our progress via this page and the blog post below.

Here's what I'm doing …

Shitbox Rally is the adventure of a lifetime challenging participants and their cars, worth no more than $1,500, on a 7 day drive across Australia to raise money for cancer research.

The rally is not a race – it’s a fun, colourful, unpredictable adventure with participants travelling at their own pace in smaller groups. Vehicles often break down but “we never leave anyone behind” and each night is spent camping beneath the stars and celebrating the day’s achievements. It all adds up to an incredible opportunity to see Australia’s vast and beautiful countryside and make lifelong friends, many brought together after experiencing cancer themselves or seeing cancer impact family and friends.

Since it’s inception the rally has been the largest fundraiser for the Cancer Council nationally.

The Impact, Outcomes & Charity

Shitbox Rally is a dedicated fundraising event for cancer research with funds going to Cancer Council.

Cancer Council is one of the largest non-government funders of cancer research in Australia. We conduct and fund research studies across all cancers and all stages of the cancer journey.

Thanks to the community funds raised such as Shitbox Rally we can fund world-class research that reduces the impact of cancer for everyone.

$50 million over the past 15 years has been raised by Box Rallies to date, supporting ground-breaking projects such as:

  • A research study to develop a vaccine that protects against lymphoma cancers.
  • A research trial to standardise international guidelines on melanoma removal.
  • A research grant to revolutionise the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

These projects wouldn’t be possible without your support.
