The Delegate Progress Association received $1128 to go towards the installation of four granite plaques that commemorate the Men from Snowy River who served in the 55th Battalion.
Minister for Veterans’ Affairs Darren Chester said the 55 community projects were a fitting way to reflect our gratitude to all those who have served our country as the Anzac Centenary program and the Century of Service draws to close.
“I offer my congratulations to these communities which will use this funding to deliver a range of thoughtful and meaningful projects, including commemorative books, artworks, services, and refurbishment of memorials,” Mr Chester said.
The Community Commemorative Grants category of the Saluting Their Service program provides up to $4000 for each project and applications can now be made through the Community Grants Hub.
