National Cemetery Administration

Veterans Legacy Grants Program: Overview

In FY2022, NCA's Office of Engagement and Memorial Innovation (OEMI) began administering the Veterans Legacy Grants Program (VLGP) as part of VLP.

VLGP is a federal discretionary grant awarded using a competitive process. This provides a forecast of Funding Opportunities under the Veterans Affairs Discretionary Grant Program.

We invite applications for new awards and will provide actual or estimated deadline dates for the transmittal of applications under these programs.

If you are interested in applying for VLGP grants with the Department of Veterans Affairs, please take the time to gather your teams, schedule query meetings, and ensure that you are familiar with national, state, and tribal cemeteries.

A Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) calls for grant proposals that foster students in colleges and universities, including (K-12), to fund research and provide a tangible report using the stories of those interred in VA's national cemeteries and VA grant-funded cemeteries.

Projects under VLGP can include books, films, graphic novels, educational manuals, as well as electronic database resource materials.
