We are raising money for a fantastic cause, The Cancer Council.
We were initially doing this in memory of my Dad, Terry, who passed away 8 years ago, but on 22nd August 2022, my mum Prue also lost her battle with a rapidly spread cancer. So we are now doing this in their honour and for everyone else touched by this insidious disease.
We are taking part in The Shitbox Rally Summer 2023. In March, we are driving an ULTRA RARE Ferrari Falcon Wagon (Shitbox, 2wd car, under $1500) from Rockhampton to Hobart, the long way, via some formidable roads and remote communities. What could possibly go wrong!?
We need your help to raise A LOT of money! IT'S TAX-DEDUCTIBLE! So PLEASE, give as generously as possible via our DONATE NOW button at the top of the page!
Shitbox Rally is the largest community lead fundraiser for the Cancer Council in Australia. They have raised over $32m over its 13 years. These funds go to the Cancer Council and we are extremely proud to be doing our part to support such a worthy charity.
Please follow our progress via this page and the blog post below.
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.
$41 million over the past 13 years has been raised by Box Rallies to date, supporting ground-breaking projects such as:
These projects wouldn’t be possible without your support.
