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.
We are a mother and son team driving an old faithful shitbox Camry. This car (was) well looked after with low km (600,000k +), driven by a lovely little old lady to church on Sundays. Will bring the little old lady for the proof. Our own personal adventure will begin in Townsville at the finish line, having to get our shitbox down to the Canberra start line in time for the shitbox rally. Our choice to use this particular vehicle has come from the vehicle having long earnt its keep to where it has no value left, but too sentimental to abandon without letting it go out without a bang.
Like most Australian families, Cancer has affected us and although we can’t change what is we believe in doing our part to make things better for those still fighting, and especially for the next generation. We have set ourselves a goal to raise a minimum of $7500 for this, our first shitbox rally, but are truly hoping to get over 10k for cancer council.
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 but most teams raise well above this amount as you can see with the Autumn 2025 rally target set at $2,000,000 plus.
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.
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.

If this car has only been driven to Church On Sundays then I would definitely want to support them. But I would like to know what the car was doing for the other 6 days of the week. Go team COS. Cos it is a worthy cause or should a say it is a worthy COS.

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.
