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 dependants, through grants to eligible ex-service organisations in Queensland.
Anzac Day Trust Fund 2024
The 2024 round of funding is now closed and no further applications will be accepted.
In 2024 the program will provide approximately $1.6 million in grants to organisations that support the welfare of veterans, their families and their dependents, in Queensland.
Feedback from past recipients and analysis of data from previous rounds has resulted in changes to the program in 2024 as the Queensland Veterans’ Council works to ensure that the grant program is more accessible for applicants and will deliver outcomes which will achieve a greater impact for the veteran community in Queensland.
In 2024 grants will be made through two separate streams:
- Under Stream A, smaller organisations were able to apply for grants up to $10,000 for the reimbursement of eligible expenditure incurred during the 2022-2023 financial year.
- Stream B will provide grants of up to $100,000 per applicant to fund future services and activities that support veterans and their dependents. Assessment of Stream B will be subject to a merit based and competitive process.
For additional information about the 2024 program, please refer to the Program Guidelines:
A review of the administration of the 2024 round of the Anzac Day Trust Fund will be conducted after the grant program has been finalised. Applicants may be contacted to provide feedback to assist with this process.
Announcement of successful recipients 2024
Applications are currently being processed. All applicants will be notified of the outcome of their applications.
It is anticipated that applicants will be notified in November 2024, however, this is an estimate only. These dates are subject to change at the discretion of the Queensland Veterans’ Council.
