Representatives from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas), Origin Bank and Century Next Bank will award a $60,000 grant to Zion Traveler Community Development Inc.

Under the Partnership Grant Program, FHLB Dallas member institutions contribute $500 to $5,000 to a nonprofit, which FHLB Dallas matches at a 5:1 ratio to provide up to $25,000 to the organization per member. The awards help promote and strengthen relationships between community-based nonprofits and FHLB Dallas members. In 2024, more than $1.2 million in funding was awarded to 47 community-based organizations via 41 member institutions.

The media is encouraged to attend the event. Please RSVP to events@fhb.com.
