FHLB Dallas recognized the Bank of Anguilla as a 2024 Community Area Revitalization Efforts (CARE) Award recipient in April for its work in helping Rolling Fork, Mississippi, recover from last year’s deadly tornado. The recognition included $15,000 to be donated to the recipient’s nonprofit of choice.

“This donation means everything; I was in tears when Bank of Anguilla called us about it,” said South Delta Animal Rescue board member Julia Clark. “We are in the process of raising funds and building a standalone shelter, which this area has never had before, and the funds will help us do that.”

Before the March 2023 tornado, South Delta Animal Rescue operated from a small space behind a vet clinic. The tornado destroyed the shelter, but all eight dogs there that evening survived and have since been adopted. Since the tornado, residents have fostered dogs in their homes while others have been sent to rescue centers as far away as Chicago, Illinois.

The shelter is being built in phases and the indoor/outdoor kennel area is expected to open in late August. A clinic and cat room will open in later phases.

Kit McCoy, president and CEO of Bank of Anguilla, said the bank’s employees had the opportunity to vote for one of four nonprofits to receive the CARE Award donation and South Delta Animal Rescue received the most votes.

“South Delta Animal Rescue was in full force right after the devastating storm, diligently working to connect pets to their rightful owners,” she said. “I am excited to see the new building finished and South Delta Animal Rescue to have a home once again. I know they will use the donation wisely. Rolling Fork and the surrounding area is very lucky to have this service.”

Bank of Anguilla used $1.4 million in FHLB Dallas grants to assist 72 businesses with rebuilding and recovery after the tornado. See the full story in this video.

“Bank of Anguilla is a true community bank with a real sense of belonging to the towns and communities it serves,” said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “It’s great to be here today to celebrate them and their donation to the South Delta Animal Rescue.”
