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 - 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.
