Our Story …

We're thrilled to share that we're gearing up for the Shitbox Rally Autumn 2025! This year, teams will be driving their beloved rust buckets from Canberra to Townsville via South Australia.

For us, this rally isn't just about the adventure—it's a heartfelt mission to raise crucial funds for cancer research. Like countless others, our team has felt the impact of these devastating diseases, having lost brothers, uncles, cousins and friends, while others continue to bravely fight on.

Now in its 14th year, Shitbox Rally stands as Australia's largest community-driven fundraiser for Cancer Council. Each team commits to raising a minimum of $5,000, though most surpass this goal. For Autumn 2025, our collective target exceeds $2,000,000—a challenge we're eager to embrace wholeheartedly.Every dollar raised directly supports Cancer Council, a cause we're deeply passionate about. Fundraising is no easy feat, so any contribution you can make would mean the world to us.

Follow our journey on this page and through our blog as we embark on this meaningful adventure.Together, let's drive change and support a cause that truly matters. Thank you for your generosity and support!

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.

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.
