After taking on the desert roads in 2016 & 2017, Ben is back with new co-driver Fil, and are putting their faith in the hands of yet another Volvo 850 to tackle the outback roads from Brisvegas to Darwin for the 2018 Shitbox Rally this May!! Not content with the sniggers and embarrassment that comes with driving a Volvo, we plan on upping the ante even more with our theme of ‘Swedish Ski Patrol’.
We HATE cancer, and are sure you do too. It’s still far too prevalent, and it's well overdue to put this insidious and feral disease on the disease scrapheap with smallpox and others. This won’t happen without your support to fund critical research. We would sincerely love your help in achieving this dream. Any donation you can spare helps the Cancer Council tackle this blight on society. Please make sure to follow our progress via this page and the blog post below.
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.
$41 million over the past 13 years has been raised by Box Rallies to date, supporting ground-breaking projects such as:
These projects wouldn’t be possible without your support.
