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 funds were awarded during a July 29 check presentation at Mercy Housing’s offices in Gulfport.

“The funding from the PGP grant will help us with the expenses we incur providing a wide variety of services to the community,” said Julie Egressy, executive director of Mercy Housing. “We are thankful for the positive impact these funds will make.”

PGP grants help qualified nonprofit organizations fund a variety of operational and administrative activities that are critical to serving their communities.

“Hancock Whitney is honored to partner with FHLB Dallas to help Mercy Housing,” said Hancock Whitney Senior Vice President and Director of Community Development Anthony Montgomery. “Mercy Housing offers a wide variety of services to the community, including homebuyer education, financial literacy and healthy lifestyle programs that improve people’s lives.”

Through this unique program, FHLB Dallas member institutions contribute $500 to $4,000 to a community-based organization (CBO), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, which FHLB Dallas matches at a 3:1 ratio to provide the CBO up to $24,000 per member and $60,000 per year in grant money. PGP grants are awarded annually through FHLB Dallas’ member institutions and help promote and strengthen relationships between CBOs and members.

“We are proud to stand alongside Hancock Whitney to assist Mercy Housing with administrative and operational expenses,” said Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas.
