Well the Rally is Done (and so are we).
5,000kms with over 2,000 of those off road in the outback and desert - to say it was hard is an understatement, driving through a 3 hour storm, sliding off the road, countless punctures and blow outs.........
HOWEVER the fundraising continues in support of the Cancer Council.
We have sold our car and raised a further $1,050, not bad for a car that cost $500 and has literally been smashed! All donated to the Cancer Council.......
So if you spare a $$Β£β¬ please help us better our current tally. CHEERS!!!!
Fiona and I are really pleased to announce that we completed the Shitbox Rally Spring 2024!
This year, all the teams drove their shitboxes from Bendigo to Townsville (we also need to drive from Sydney to the start in line in Bendigo!!).
Our fundraising is progressing but we are still seeking donations and sponsorship (sponsorship provides advertising on the car and Rally Media and social media). ππͺπ
Shitbox Rally is the largest community lead fundraiser for Cancer Council in Australia and is now in its 14th year. Part of the participation is that all teams have to raise a minimum of $5,000 but most teams raise well above this amount as you can see with the Spring 2024 rally target set at $2,000,000 plus.
These funds go to Cancer Council and we are extremely proud to be doing our part to support such a worthy charity. The fundraising is the hard part, so any donation you can give is greatly appreciated. Please make sure to follow our progress via this page and the blog post below.
Thank you!

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 β itβs a fun, colourful, unpredictable adventure with participants travelling at their own pace in smaller groups. Vehicles often break down but βwe never leave anyone behindβ and each night is spent camping beneath the stars and celebrating the dayβs achievements. It all adds up to an incredible opportunity to see Australiaβs vast and beautiful countryside and make lifelong friends, many brought together after experiencing cancer themselves or seeing cancer impact family and friends.
Since itβs inception the rally has been the largest fundraiser for the Cancer Council nationally.
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:
These projects wouldnβt be possible without your support.
