Projects receive funding to honour veterans’ service
12 March 2025
Thirty-six organisations across Australia will share in more than $575,000 under Batch 2 of the 2024-25 Saluting Their Service Commemorative Grants Program, announced on 12 March 2025 by the Minister for Veterans’ Affairs, the Hon. Matt Keogh MP.
The funding includes 30 community projects and 6 major projects, all aimed at commemorating the service and sacrifice of veterans and families and promoting and preserving Australia’s wartime heritage.
From erecting flagpoles to establishing memorial gardens and installing creative murals, the projects all share a common goal: to share, understand and appreciate veterans’ experiences.
Since its inception, the Saluting Their Service Commemorative Grants Program has funded thousands of projects across the nation, empowering communities to honour their veterans in innovative and lasting ways that resonate with local communities.
Three funding batches totalling $3.5 million are being offered during the 2024-25 year through Community Grants (up to $10,000) and Major Grants (between $10,001 and $150,000). Learn more about the projects funded under Batch 1 of the 2024-25 program.
Batch 3 applications closed on 5 February 2025, with the outcomes to be announced later this year.
Congratulations to all successful recipients.
