In May 2018 Greg Robinson (AUS) and Doug Griffin (USA) , team Trans Pacific, are driving a car worth < $1000 across Australia from Brisbane to Darwin where we discover the wonders of the Australian Outback and camping under the stars for a week. That's over 8000 kms or 5000 miles round trip. Check out the video for last year's event ... 100% had the time of our lives.
But there is a serious side to the event, which is raising funds. Shitbox Rally is the largest community lead fundraiser for cancer research in Australia and is now in its 9th year. Over $12,000,000 has been raised so far, a wonderful effort by the event.
Greg and Doug are extremely proud to be doing our part to support such a worthy charity. Last year in Shitbox 2017 we were proud to raise $14,707 and it was wonderful to see our friends and colleagues support us in this worthy cause.
Let's face it, everyone has been affected in one way or another by cancer and the more money we can get directly to cancer research will help prolong the lives of future patients.
So please help us reach our goal and donate to this very worthy cause. Any donation you can give is greatly appreciated, as always every little bit counts.
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:
