Arvest Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas Celebrate $15K Donation to Assist Affordable Housing Nonprofit
FHLB Dallas recognized Arvest Bank earlier this year as a Community Area Revitalization Efforts (CARE) Award recipient earlier this year for its use of FHLB Dallas community investment programs. The recognition included $15,000 to be donated to the recipient’s nonprofit of choice.
“We are honored to receive this award from Arvest Bank and FHLB Dallas and consider it positive recognition for the work we’re doing in University District neighborhoods to increase the supply of affordable housing,” said Barrett Allen, executive director of UDDC.
Arvest was honored for its use of several FHLB Dallas programs, including the Special Needs Assistance Program, which provides grants for the repair and rehabilitation for homeowners who are elderly, disabled or have other special needs; and the Affordable Housing Program, which provides funds for single-family and multifamily housing.
“We’ve supported UDDC for many years and are thrilled to be able to donate our CARE Award to them for the impactful work they are doing to provide affordable housing in the University District neighborhoods,” said Arvest Group CRA Director Virgil Miller.

“Arvest Bank doesn’t just tap into one or two FHLB Dallas community programs,” said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “It uses most of our community programs and as a result has a positive impact on many lives.”
