This year's Anzac Day Trust Grants have been awarded to 6 organisations who will share over $1.2 million in funding.
Recipients' funded activities include employment transition services, housing and accommodation support, pilot regional veterans support program, living independently program for veteran families, and more.
Each grant supports ex-service personnel and their families by funding projects and organisations whose activities benefit them.
Support is achieved through assisting established ex-service organisations who are delivering programs, projects and initiatives supporting the WA veteran community.
Grants have been provided by the ANZAC Day Trust (ADT) and administered by the Veteran Issues team at Defence West as a part of the WA Government.
