FHLB Dallas’ Partnership Grant Program Provides 5:1 Match of Members’ Donations <\/p>\n

RIDGELAND, Miss., September 01, 2026–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–Sixteen Mississippi community-based organizations received a combined $355,950 through the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas’ (FHLB Dallas) Partnership Grant Program (PGP), part of more than $1.8 million awarded across FHLB Dallas’ five-state region. The Mississippi awards were celebrated today in Ridgeland, Mississippi, as FHLB Dallas marked the program’s 30th anniversary. <\/p>\n

The grants were awarded in partnership with nine FHLB Dallas member institutions. <\/p>\n

“By providing matching funds to our members’ contributions, the PGP empowers local organizations to pursue ambitious goals and serve more people,” said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “We are proud to work alongside our members to foster positive change in communities across the state.” <\/p>\n

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. See PGP<\/a> for more information about the program and how funds may be used. <\/p>\n
