The American Australian Association established its Veterans’ Fund in 2017 to provide much needed financial support and assistance to Australian and American honorably discharged post-9/11 military veterans to pursue study in each other’s countries respectively. With more than 50 veteran scholars and alumni and US $2 million awarded to date, the AAA is committed to investing in the future of veterans by supporting educational opportunities which build new skills and create prosperous post-military careers.
