Federal Member for Bowman Andrew Laming said the grant program would give the community the opportunity to honour service and sacrifice.
"There are many different ways this can be done from traditional dawn services and marches of veterans, through to re-enactments of recruiting marches, school-based education programs, refurbishing of memorials and honour boards and establishment of new places of commemoration and reflection," he said.
Mr Laming said he would soon invite representatives from local groups to participate in a Redlands Anzac Centenary Community Grants Committee to provide advice and recommendations on applications made by the local community.
"The Anzac Centenary Community Grants Committee formed in the Redlands will assess applications for funding and make recommendations to me about projects to be submitted to the Department of Veterans' Affairs for consideration."
