Our Story …

Hocus Pocus, here we are! Two old witches hoping not to be in the ditches for our first rally .

Help us create some magic and fundraise for a cause that is in all our hearts.

All the teams are going to be driving from Rockhampton to Hobart for the Summer 2023 rally, with a bit of luck, and magic we wont be pushing our shitbox across the finish line.

These two witches are life long friends, who are bubbling with joy at the opportunity to participate and raise money for the Cancer Council.

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 with your help we hope to raise well above this goal, 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.

Cancer touches us all, this is a cause close to our heart, we all know or have known someone that has either had cancer or had their lives impacted by cancer in some way. I'm doing this in memory of dad who is sadly no longer with us due to cancer.

Please make sure to follow our progress via this page and the blog post below.

Help us spread a little magic.

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.

raised: $2,159,943
target: $2,000,000

<p>So the witches, have been hard at work, with one witch going the extra mile this week digging in the dirt pulling weeds to add some much needed funds to our caldron. We have been flying around looking for our new ride but alas it eludes us. A few well placed spells and our little shitbox will appear. Follow us on face book for more updates as we progress closer to making that start line.</p>

<p>Update on our rally car, well that's not going so well, it drove back the 2.5hrs to the witches den was all good. Great upgrade from the Broom sticks but not so reliable. It died in the carport and cant even be rolled out ....its looking like a tilt tray ride to the wreckers but who knows maybe all it needs is a little sprinkle of magic or maybe a bonfire under it.</p>

<p>Quick update for those following our progress. Still no shitbox in sight, not many available at the moment in Mackay. Hopefully we will find something soon . Our next deadline is looming and its not looking good, but hey we still have 5 days left to find just over $600, better fire up the ol magic stick and start pointing it at a few friends. Might be able to lengthen the arms a little ?just remember its all in fun and goes to a great cause. We all know someone that has been touched by the big C, so hoping everyone can keep spreading a little bit of magic for a bit longer and help us reach our fundraising goal.</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.
