Our Story …

We're Kane & Anna, husband and wife from South Australia, and we are Team KFC Run in the Spring 2024 Shitbox Rally!

This October we will be driving 'The Colonel' our 30yo Toyota Camry all the way from Bendigo to Townsville via inland outback towns with ~500 other rally participants.

Shitbox Rally is the Cancer Councils largest community lead fundraiser in Australia, and is now in its 14th year. To participate all teams must raise a minimum of $5,000, the total Spring 2024 rally target is set at >$2,000,000 (which has been hit & surpassed!!!)

Funds raised go to Cancer Council Australia's important cancer research programs.

We are extremely proud to be doing our part to support such a worthy charity. We're rallying for all of the people in our lives who have fought cancer battles, and for all our generous donors loved ones who's names are written on our car.

Fundraising is the hardest part, any donation you can give would gratefully received to help us reach our $10k target.

If you are looking to sponsor rather than donate please reach out directly, there is a different process for sponsorships.

Please give generously and follow our progress at KFC RUN RALLY 2024 on Facebook.

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.

raised: $2,391,877
target: $2,000,000

Go Kane & Jess - Team KFC Run! So excited for you guys and very jealous I can't join, it's going to be an epic adventure. Love you both and couldn't be prouder that you are raising money for the Cancer Council and for all of the people we know who have suffered through cancer. For Uncle Grey, for pop, for mum Julie, for a friend, for some work colleagues - so many people I know have had cancer, all of them fought a battle and not all of them made it - this is for all of them xx F**k Cancer Love AJ and Diesel

These funds are going towards critical cancer research programs to help find better treatments and cures.</p><p>Your messages of support and the name dedications meant the world to us, taking over 40 names of people who have suffered from cancer along on the journey with us make it all the more worthwhile - this was for them!!!</p><p>If you want to see more of what we got up to head to KFC RUN RALLY 2024 on Facebook for all the photos and daily updates.</p><p>THANK YOU!</p>

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.
