We are super stoked to announce that we're taking part in Shitbox Rally 2023 Autumn!! This year, all the teams are driving their shitboxes the roughly 3000km from Newcastle to Townsville, via Betoota.
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 but most teams raise well above this amount as you can see with the 2023 Autumn rally target set at $2,000,000 plus.
Conor and Dylan AKA the straight pipes cannot wait ton take part in the rally. We are super keen to raise the 5000$ required to help the Cancer councils research. in order to do so we will be adding incentives:
Any donations will give access to a private instagram group to follow our journey as it happens.
$10 - we will write your name on the exterior of the car
$50 - we will make a sticker from a photo of your choice (hopefully yourself) to paste on the car so you can ride along with us
$100 - A message of your choice written on the car (remember its for charity).
$250 - Your face will be printed onto our hubcaps
$500 - You can decide what hairdo we will be rocking
- Any personal donations over $500 we are happy to discuss bespoke rewards.
We are also seeking company sponsorships to help with the race and raise money for the Cancer council. These will include displaying the company logos on the vehicle for compensation, either monetary or Vehicle parts/Expertise. These sponsorships will start from $500. Please contact us personally at dylan.pathirana@gmail.com to discuss this sort of arrangement.
These funds go to the 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.
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.
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.
