The funding can be put towards a range of activities such as preservation activities and training, conservation activities such as cleaning and treatments, environmental control equipment, replication of material, management software and more.

The Community Heritage Grants Program was created in 1994 to assist in the preservation of Australian cultural heritage collections that are publicly accessible, locally held and contain national significance.
