More than $1.07M awarded through grant cycles in fiscal year 2025

The Community Foundation of Abilene and our donors awarded more than $1.07M through our community grant cycles during our 2025 fiscal year (July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025). We hold two community grant cycles each year – one in the spring and one in the fall.

Since the Foundation opened in 1985, donors have given unrestricted gifts and established field-of-interest funds to support local needs through the competitive grant cycles.

Additional contributions to grant cycles are made by donor-advised fundholders and general contributions from the community.

These grant opportunities are open to nonprofit organizations serving the Abilene community. The awarded nonprofits represent these categories:

• Arts and Culture: 5%
• Children and Youth: 17%
• Community Development: 17%
• Education: 10%
• Health: 20%
• Human Services: 31%
