Australian Values Project – Australia Day 2021 Grants Program

The National Australia Day Committee (NADC) wants Australia Day 2021 to be a day for communities to come together to reflect, respect and celebrate the individual and collective efforts of Australians who put the wellbeing of others before themselves, supported their communities in a time of need and rose to the challenges of the extraordinary times in the last year. The central message of the campaign is that Australia Day is a day to reflect, respect and celebrate – we’re all part of the story

Australia Day 2021 Grants Program (see NADC Australia Day Fact sheet – Grants, attached, for further information )

between the NADC and the Australia Day Network comprises:

1. $20,000 COVIDsafe Events Grants
