Our Story …

Welcome friends and thanks for joining our journey to raise much needed funds for the Cancer Council through participating in the Autumn edition of the Box Rallies!


Team 'GUMTREE RENDEZVOUS' , also known as Emma & Tahnee, will be gallivanting through some of the toughest roads in the country. We will be putting life and limb on the line, not just tackling rough conditions but also attempting it all in a vehicle that may best be suited for the scrap heap...we LOVE a good challenge!


A friendship born from an advertisement on Gumtree seeking companionship nearly a decade ago (not dodgy we swear!), we are ready to push this relationship to the extreme!


Want to help? Of course you do!!! Every person no matter how young or old has been impacted by cancer. Fundraising provides financial support for new programs and research, and assists people living with cancer and their families.


ALL donations great and small contribute to such a worthwhile cause and we can't wait to share our wild journey from Newcastle to Townsville ( VIA BEETOOTA) with you!

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.

$41 million over the past 13 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.
