The entities celebrated the grant at a ceremonial check presentation on October 26.

Rosalind Washington, executive vice president at NDF, said the pandemic has created a strain on the organization’s mission.

“Over the last two years, because of the pandemic, monetary resources have been difficult to find as they are being allocated to health care needs,” said Ms. Washington. “We are truly grateful to receive this grant as it allows us to focus on providing programs to those who need it most.”

Home Bank Senior Vice President and Community Development Director Kelvin Luster said the PGP has helped the bank build new relationships in its community.

“The PGP is important to Home Bank because it allows us to build relationships with community-based organizations like NDF,” said Mr. Luster. “We are grateful for our partnership with FHLB Dallas to help better the community we serve.”

For 2021, FHLB Dallas awarded $400,000 in PGP grants, and its members provided an additional $200,250 for an impact of more than $600,000 in its five-state District of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas.

“The 3:1 match of the PGP highlights the partnership aspect of the program, making it beneficial for members like Home Bank as well as FHLB Dallas,” said Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment. “Home Bank strengthens its ties with the community, which benefits from the partnership and funds.”
