We are really pleased to announce that we're taking part in Shitbox Rally 2025 - Spring! This year, all the teams are driving their shitboxes from Alice Springs to Gold Coast.
Cancer has touched all of our lives—some of us have lost loved ones, while others have seen friends and family fight and win. This year, we’re taking on this epic adventure, embracing the challenge and chaos of driving bargain basement cars across the outback in order to raise crucial funds for cancer research. It’s our way of turning the challenge into action, honouring those we’ve lost, and celebrating the survivors.
Our trusty ride for the journey is a $700 all-purpose Aussie family wagon, well-loved and hopefully still roadworthy. We’re counting on it to withstand the grueling six to seven-day trek through some of the outback’s finest “freeways” (better known as dirt tracks) before rolling across the finish line on the Gold Coast.
We’d love your support and any donation amount, small or large would be greatly appreciated (and is also fully tax deductable.)
Many thanks,
Lloyd and Lorraine
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.
$59 million over the past 15 years has been raised by Box Rallies to date, supporting ground-breaking projects such as:
These projects wouldn’t be possible without your support.
