A new year means the opening of the 2021-22 Saluting Their Service Commemorative Grants Program, with applications now welcome from organisations in Durack.
The Federal Member for Durack, the Honourable Melissa Price, said the program was now entering its 25th year and had already supported thousands of projects.
“It gives me great pleasure to let the community know that applications for the Saluting Their Service Commemorative Grants Program are now open, as I have seen first-hand the amazing work that results from this grant funding,” Ms Price said.
“Durack has a rich military history and each year many community organisations contribute much, to ensure we remember those who served and their efforts in defending our nation and its allies.
“Commemoration is at the heart of our community, something we see on display each Anzac Day and Remembrance Day, and I encourage organisations to apply for funding through the Saluting Their Service Commemorative Grants Program”, she said.
There are 2 categories of grants available under the program, Community Grants (STS-CG) to a maximum of $10,000 are available for local, community-based projects and activities and Major Grants (STS-MG) between $10,000 and $150,000 are available for major commemorative projects and activities that are significant from a national, state, territory and/or regional perspective.
The Grant Opportunity Guidelines have been revised for 2021–22, which includes more information around coronavirus support and new opening and closing dates.
