Veterans Cemetery Grants
The Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration is seeking applications from state governments and federally recognized tribal governments for the Veterans Cemetery Grants Program. The grants may be used to establish, expand, improve, operate, and maintain veterans' cemeteries that are owned and operated by the applicant. Key requirements include conformance to VA standards, compliance with the Buy America, Buy American Act, and a focus on providing interment services for veterans and their eligible family members. The application deadline is July 1, 2025. The Veterans Cemetery Grants Program has awarded over $1 billion in funding to support 122 veterans' cemeteries across 49 states and territories, including tribal trust lands. The grants can provide up to 100% of the development costs for approved projects, which may involve cemetery construction, renovation, infrastructure upgrades, and operational enhancements. Funded projects must be located within the applicant's state, territory, or tribal trust lands.

Veterans Cemetery Grants
program information updated - The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Cemetery Grants Program was established in 1978 to complement VA's national cemeteries. The program assists states, territories, and tribal governments in providing gravesites for Veterans in those areas where NCA cannot fully satisfy their burial needs. VA has awarded grants totaling more than $959 million to establish, expand, improve, operate and maintain 120 Veterans cemeteries in 48 states and territories including tribal trust lands, Guam, and Saipan. In fiscal year 2021, NCA grant funded state cemeteries provided more than 45,000 interments. Grants may be used only to establish, expand or improve Veterans cemeteries that are owned and operated by a state, territory or tribal government on trust land. Aid is granted only to states, U.S. territories and federally recognized tribal governments, not to private organizations, counties, cities or other government agencies. Cemeteries funded under the grant program must conform to the standards and guidelines pertaining to site selection, planning and construction prescribed by VA. Cemeteries must be operated solely for the interment of Veterans (as defined in 38 CFR part 39.2), and their eligible family members (see 38 CFR part 39.10). The administration, operation, and maintenance of a VA-supported state cemetery is solely the responsibility of the state, territory or tribal government. VA is authorized to reimburse states "plot allowance" of up to $828.00 for expenses incurred in the burial of certain eligible Veteran.
