James Pitt and Michael Lowe are hitting the road!
We’re thrilled to announce that we’re taking part in the Shitbox Rally Autumn 2025—a road trip where the cars are rubbish, but the cause couldn’t be better. Our team name? Lowenslow—a nod to our names, our budget, our preferred manner of cooking and most likely, our top speed.
This isn’t just a casual jaunt through the outback in a Shitbox. We’re doing this to raise money for the Cancer Council NSW, supporting vital cancer research and services for those who need them most. But here’s the thing: we can’t do it alone.
👉 Got a few bucks? Chuck it in the donation bucket.
👉 Know a business that wants to sponsor some legends? Point them our way.
👉 Got some good vibes to spare? We’ll take those too (especially when the car inevitably breaks down).
Shitbox Rally is the largest community lead fundraiser for Cancer Council in Australia. Part of the participation is that all teams have to raise a minimum of $5,000. These funds go to Cancer Council and we are extremely proud to be doing our part to support such a worthy charity. Donate now to be part of the chaos and the cause! We’ll keep you posted as we prepare for what is sure to be a mix of epic adventure and mechanical misadventure. Thanks for your support—let’s drive change together!
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.
