Member for Goulburn Wendy Tuckerman said the Remembrance Grove was important to the Berrima community as well as the wider Goulburn electorate to remember the service men and women who fought for Australia.
"The funding of $9,000 to the Berrima Residents Association will enable production of a conservation management plan for the Berrima Remembrance Grove," Mrs Tuckerman said
"Our war memorials are where the community pays tribute to the contribution made to the war efforts and represents a significant part of the region's history."
Acting minister for Veterans Geoff Lee said these were two of 22 projects to receive funding from this round of grants from the Community War Memorials Fund.
"A total of $140,000 has been invested in memorials across NSW from Bonalbo to Bungendore and Woy Woy to Wagga Wagga," Mr Lee said.
"Funding will restore honour rolls, repair stone monuments and provide access to specialist conservation advice."
