The organization will use the funds to cover administration, accounting and insurance costs.

Natchez-Adams Habitat was incorporated in 1991 and built its first home two years later. Since then, it has built 23 homes with the 24th on its way to completion for low- to moderate-income families. The organization’s mission is to eliminate substandard housing in Natchez and Adams counties in Mississippi.

“Our usual donations have been down significantly over the last 18 months because of the pandemic,” said Natchez-Adams Habitat Secretary Duncan McFarlane. “We appreciate the support of Home Bank and FHLB Dallas for their generosity. With decreased donations and rising construction costs, this grant will go a long way in helping us continue our mission.”

Home Bank Senior Vice President and Community Development Director Kelvin Luster said he is grateful for the result of the bank’s partnership with FHLB Dallas.

“These funds will provide Natchez-Adams Habitat additional resources to grow,” said Mr. Luster. “We are honored to be part of that and for our partnership with FHLB Dallas that made this grant possible.”

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.

“We value our partnership with Home Bank, which has been deeply involved in community initiatives over the years,” said Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas.
