Applications are now open for the 2025-26 Veteran Wellbeing Grants (VWG) Program, a $3.8 million program to support ex-service organisations and community groups undertake tailored, military aware activities that focus on the wellbeing of the veteran community.

The program is designed to support a huge range of creative pursuits, group bonding activities and peer supports, recognising the breadth of interests and needs among our veteran community.

Small grants of up to $50,000 and large grants of up to $200,000 are available to support community projects that strengthen social connection or promote the physical and mental health of veterans and families of veterans.

Organisations selected for funding in past rounds have demonstrated a strong understanding of the challenges faced by veterans and families and are delivering wellbeing support services and activities which meet the needs of their local community.
