Who can apply
Office for Veterans Affairs does not publish a structured list of eligible applicant types for this program, so this page does not show one. The eligibility criteria in the guidelines on the official page are the ones that count.
What Minister for Veterans Discretionary Fund funds
Small-scale grants provided to support community-based projects. These grants support community-based projects which are identified by the Minister for Veterans through ongoing community engagement, where funding may not be available through other government programs. Grants are awarded at the discretion of the Minister for Veterans. This program is funded and administered by Office for Veterans Affairs.

How to apply
Applications are made through
Office for Veterans Affairs
Not through GrantWindow. We do not take applications, charge a fee or act as an intermediary, and any site that offers to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look. The direct link to Office for Veterans Affairs's own page for this program is one of the two facts a trial opens, alongside the exact closing date.
- This round is closed. Many Australian grant programs run again, and a closed program is the reason the alert list exists: we watch this listing nightly and tell the list the day it reopens.
- Confirm details on the official page before applying. GrantWindow records what the funder published and when we read it. We are not the funder and this page is not legal, financial or eligibility advice.
