Thanks to a Special Needs Assistance Program (SNAP) grant from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas and RiverHills Bank, Port Gibson, Miss. Resident Julia James was able to repair her roof and restore the foundation of her 80-year-old home. For years, James watched water drip through the ceiling of her bedroom and fill up the buckets she put out to catch the rain. James, who is on a fixed income, could not afford the critical home repairs on her own. In February 2016, she received a SNAP grant totaling $4,935. RiverHills Bank Senior Vice President David Blackledge acknowledges the important role SNAP grants play in the community. "SNAP grants help us make this community better and stronger," Mr. Blackledge said. "As a community bank, our goal is to serve this community, and we need programs like SNAP to do that."
