We’re Jess and Butch — just a couple of mates who love a road trip, a good laugh, and getting behind something that really matters. What started as a bit of a wild idea has turned into something we’re seriously proud of — taking on the Mystery Box Rally to help make a real difference in the fight against cancer.
Every kilometre we drive tells a story — not just of adventure, but of hope.
We’re not just in this for the unknown roads or the challenge ahead (though we’ll take that too). We’re doing this for something far bigger than ourselves. For the families who’ve heard the words no one ever wants to hear. For the fighters, the survivors, and the ones taken far too soon.
Cancer doesn’t care if you’re in the city or way out bush — and neither do we. This rally takes us through some of Australia’s most remote communities, raising awareness and much-needed funds for research that can change lives.
Every dollar you chip in does more than keep the wheels turning — it helps drive hope. Hope for better treatments. Hope for more time. Hope for a future where fewer families have to go through this. We’re bloody proud to be part of something that brings people together for a cause that touches all of us in one way or another. And we’d love to have you along for the ride. Let’s drive change together.
Mystery Box Rally is a 5-day challenge like no other. Participants drive 25+ year old cars along a mystery route, through some of Australia’s most stunning (and often rugged) landscapes, all in support of cancer research. It’s not a race—it’s a challenge and more importantly, a celebration of the power of community.
Yes, the cars break down, and yes, there are plenty of unexpected twists along the way, but that’s all part of the fun. The rally is designed to be a colourful and unpredictable experience, where teams travel in small groups, helping each other along the way. And when the day’s drive ends, we gather around the campfire, share stories, and reflect on the day’s achievements.
This event brings together people who have been impacted by cancer in different ways—whether it's through their own battles or through loved ones. Together we’ll make memories that last a lifetime while supporting the fight against cancer.
Founded in 2009, Box Rallies has raised well over $50 million for cancer research with our chosen beneficiary being Cancer Council.
We are proud to be the funder of national cancer research projects after the Australian Government. These enormous funds raised go towards vital cancer research projects.
Thanks to the community funds raised such as Mystery Box Rally we can fund world-class research that reduces the impact of cancer for everyone.
