The latest round of Veteran and Community Grants program is now open, and organisations that provide local support are encouraged to apply.
Grants of up to $20,000 are available for local, community-based projects and activities. A small number of large grants of up to $150,000 are available for projects that deliver wellbeing support services and activities of broad-scale benefit to the veteran community.
Senator Jim Molan said grants can provide seed funding for projects that promote a healthy lifestyle, help veterans to remain living independently in their own homes, reduce social isolation, support carers and improve access to community services."
"Communities know best what will benefit veterans and their families, and these grants will provide opportunities to community organisations to extend the important support they provide to veterans and their families," he Molan said.
The 2020-21 grant round is open online.
Grant applications will close 29 January 2021.
