Our Story …

We are really pleased to announce that we're taking part in Shitbox Rally 2025 - Autumn! This year, all the teams are driving their Shitboxes from Canberra to Townsville via Birdsville.


Shitbox Rally is the largest community lead fundraiser for Cancer Council in Australia and is now in its 15th year. Part of the participation is that all teams have to raise a minimum of $5,000. Our target is $50,000


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. Please make sure to follow our progress via this page and the blog post below. If you're reading this then you probably know either one of us and have been asked personally to donate, so please dig deep.


Most of us have been touched by Cancer in some way. A close school mate, a family member, or a 2 year old Grand Daughter are just some examples.


Jeff (Ming) Stewart and Andrew (George) Burnet appreciate your assistance in making the "Boombox Boomers" Shitbox (an old Falcon Wagon with nearly 400000km on the clock) the highest fundraiser on this rally. Thanks.

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: $2,392,481
target: $2,000,000

<p>Some weeks later we've managed to do some repairs and decorate to our "Shitbox". We're yet to replace the tyres acquire roadworthy and registration. The promotion material has now been prepared and we're on our way to do our bit to cure cancer! </p><p>We can't do it alone. Please be part of this journey by digging deep and donate simply by clicking the "Donate Now" button and follow the instructions. The Cancer Council handle all funds donated. Anything over $2 is tax deductible. Jeff and George invite large donations to be a sponsor which include many benefits for you or your business. Contact us for more information re sponsorship. We look forward to your approach.</p>

<p>The story so far:</p><p></p><p>We've been accepted into the rally for 2025 Autumn run. We searched the internet for a suitable shitbox but eventually found an old paddock basher through a family connection in Canberra. A one eyed 1998 Falcon Wagon with nearly 400,000 km on the clock. It also had a farm tractor sit on its bonnet at some stage.</p><p></p><p>Jeff &amp; George hooked up the car trailer and travelled from Alstonville to Canberra to collect it. The trip back to Alstonville encounter a separated tyer on the car trailer but otherwise uneventful. The task now is the make any repairs needed for a roadworthy certificate and registration. This involves a thorough clean, fix oil leaks, knock out and straighten panel damage and replace the tyers. The motor and transmission seem ok, so far!</p><p></p><p>Next is to dress the wagon in a "Boombox Boomers" theme. This may require plastering the vehicle with stuff from our Baby Boomer era and rows of speakers on the roof racks. Stay tuned for updates.</p>

<p>Thanks to everyone that's coming aboard to help us raise as much funds as possible so the Cancer Council can direct said funds to areas that will be of most benefit in advancing the fight and finding a cure. We've now surpassed the minimum target of $5000 donations to partake in the Shitbox Rally, but we still have our target of $50,000 to reach. We'll be looking for a major sponsor to achieve this, so hoping to find a generous philanthropist or Company looking to identify a worthwhile charity to satisfy their annual budget requirements; and have a bit of fun along the way. Remember, everything over $2 is tax deductible.</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.

$50 million over the past 15 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.
