Our Story …

Ohhhh yeah! We will be taking part in the Shitbox Rally, Autumn 2023 ✌? 


After losing my Pop earlier this year who fought a battle with cancer for as long as I can remember and only ever knowing my Nanna through photos and stories my pop would share, because of cancer.. I decided to registered my dad and I for this event in honour of his parents / my grandparents.. the look on my Dads face when I told him we got accepted was priceless!


I thought there’s no better way to spend a week with my Dad, in a shitbox car worth less then $1,500 driving it over 5,000kms , from Newcastle to Townsville via Betoota.. listening to old country songs (wait, hopefully our shitbox has a radio ?) camping in our swags at stopovers in the dust dirt and muddy conditions. It certainly sounds like one hell of an adventure and an experience my Dad and I will remember forever. 


Everyone has a story about cancer because a cancer diagnosis affects the emotional health of patients, families, friends and caregivers in the life-changing experience. Throughout my life I have watched how this horrible disease has left families absolutely heartbroken and deflated. 


Shitbox Rally is the largest community lead fundraiser for the Cancer Council in Australia and is now in its 13th year. Part of the participation is that all teams have to raise a minimum of $5,000. These funds go to the Cancer Council and we are extremely proud to be doing our part to support such a worthy charity.


If you can spare a few bucks to donate, please do! Or share my post - we would be very grateful ?

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.
