Since 1965, the Anzac Day Trust Fund has provided annual grants to organisations that support the welfare of veterans, their families and their dependents, in Queensland.
Donations
The Anzac Day Trust Fund is principally made up of State Government funding, however, donations from the broader community are welcomed.
In 2024 the Brisbane Broncos made a generous donation of $50,000. All donations contribute to support the welfare of veterans, their families and dependents, through grants to eligible ex-service organisations in Queensland.
Anzac Day Trust Fund Grant Program 2024
Applications for the 2024 round of funding closed on 17 June 2024.
The Queensland Veterans’ Council has been working to ensure that the grant program is accessible for applicants and will deliver outcomes which will achieve an increased impact for the veteran community in Queensland. Feedback from past recipients and analysis of data from previous rounds has resulted in some refinements to the Grant Program for 2024.
In 2024 funding has been made available under two streams:
- Stream A: Grants up to $10,000 for retrospective reimbursement of expenditure incurred during the 2022-2023 Financial Year. This funding stream is only available to small ex-service organisations.
- Stream B: Competitive grants of up to $100,000 each for innovative projects to address the needs of veterans and their dependents over a 12-month period. Applicants are required to demonstrate how their activities will provide improved outcomes for the veteran community.
For additional information about the 2024 program, please refer to the Program Guidelines:
