Our Story …

Hi Everyone.


Justin and I are really pleased to officially announce that we're taking part in 2023 Summer Shitbox Rally for Cancer from Rockhampton in Queensland to Hobart in Tasmania.


We're doing the rally in memory of my brothers Marty and Matthew, Justin's mum Rita, our sister in-law Carolann's dad Andrew and my Dad Kevin all of who we recently lost to cancer and for Enid's dad Laurie who was diagnosed last year.


There's just too many of us that have been impacted by, or knows someone who's been impacted by cancer. It's shitty and while it's not much, Justin and I feel as though we need to do this to raise money that will hopefully find a cure and save lives in the future.


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 Summer rally target set at $2,000,000 plus.


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.


We would like to acknowledge the amazing support of autObarn Tuggeranong, Mycar Tyre & Auto, Tuggeranong Auto Electrics, BCF Fyshwick and Tentworld Fyshwick, Gerald Slaven Ford, the Vikings Group and Burger Villains who have provided such generous support.


We would also like to acknowledge the generous support of The Canberra Distillery, Canberra BMW, Hume Body Works, Obsession Car Detailing, Waves Car Wash, Anaconda and EUROSPEC Diecast Models.


THANK YOU everyone for being part of not only our Shitbox Rally for Cancer adventure but for supporting us in anyway that you are able too ❤️

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>Well, I suppose now that we've been "officially" accepted on the 2023 Summer Shitbox Rally that it's really happening !!</p><p></p><p>We're very excited and daunted at the same time as it starting to dawn on us that there is a bit of organising that goes into doing this. But we're confident that we'll get there and have a ball along the way.</p><p></p><p>We're just waiting to hear from a good mate in Albury whether a car that he has for us has passed a mechanical check and roadworthy .... fingers crossed.</p><p></p><p>We've written to a few businesses asking if they might consider supporting us and just waiting to hear back.</p><p></p><p>Thank you to everyone that has so generously contributed towards the minimum $5,000 that we need to raise to be eligable to take part.</p><p></p><p>I'm just about to transfer the money raised so far to our official Shitbox account and I can tell everyone that we have already raised more than $2,000 !!!</p><p></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.
