VPP Participants are required to return 5% of profits to designated Veteran support Not-For-Profits each year.

How would a ‘Veterans Dividend’ work?  

Any entity wishing to register as a recognised VPP Business must nominate a preferred Not-For-Profit (NFP) to which they will provide 5% of the profits that they earn from VPP contracts. Ordinary profits from other sources are exempted.

The NFP must be recognised by DVA.

To maintain registration as a VPP business entities must provide a P&L which demonstrates that they have paid 5% of profits to their nominated NFP.

If a business fails to make a contribution to a NFP over three years they will be deregistered from the VPP.
