Our Story …

We are really pleased to announce that we're taking part in Shitbox Rally Winter 2024, our second rally! This year, all the teams are driving their shitboxes from Melbourne to Alice Springs.


Once again we are doing this in honour of all who have suffered or lost their lives to cancer, including dad who is half of this team - constantly having melanomas removed, my late grandmother/dad's mother-in-law Kathy and two of my mentors/colleagues/friends Kalinda and Elizabeth.


Shitbox Rally is the largest community led 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 raise well above this amount and the Winter 2024 rally target is 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!!

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.

<p>The Shitbox has been purchased! Sticking with our European theme, this time we’ve gone a stunning Peugeot 307 turbo diesel. Dad says she’s had more hits than Abba but we think she’s a real beauty and will safely carry us over the finish line. This time we’ve got over 1000 clicks before we even start. Our last car Florrie only lasted 100kms after the finish line before she gave up for good. So… fingers crossed!!!!! </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.

$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.
