Serving Grace in Alexandria received a $16,085 grant through the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas’ (FHLB Dallas) Partnership Grant Program.
The grant was awarded in partnership with Red River Bank as part of $702,633 in grants awarded to Louisiana community-based organizations. The Louisiana grants were celebrated Sept. 10 during an event in New Orleans as FHLB Dallas marked the program’s 30th anniversary.
Across FHLB Dallas’ five-state region, more than $1.8 million was awarded through the program. The Louisiana grants were awarded in partnership with 18 member institutions.
“The PGP amplifies the generosity of our members, enabling nonprofits to expand their reach and deliver greater results,” said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “Our collaboration with member institutions is at the heart of community progress, and the PGP is a powerful tool for advancing that mission.”
Under the program, FHLB Dallas member institutions contribute $500 to $5,000 to a nonprofit, and FHLB Dallas matches those contributions at a 5:1 ratio to provide up to $25,000 to the organization per member.
The Partnership Grant Program may be used for organizational capacity building, assistance with applying for grants and other funding sources, research and studies, contractual services and general operating expenses.
The following community-based organizations were supported in Louisiana. Actual member matches may be higher than what is reflected if the contribution exceeded the allowable match funding amounts:
