The Community Foundation of Abilene is honored to host SPUR, a nonprofit conference offering nonprofit education led by experienced presenters, connections with peers and community leaders, and engagement with potential funders interested in rural causes across West-Central Texas. 

The two-day conference features sessions on capacity building, strategic planning, nonprofit finance, marketing, and more. A special feature is the funder roundtables, which is an opportunity for nonprofits to meet face to face with real funders to discuss whether there are possible matches between their giving or grant priorities and the nonprofit’s needs.
