Wildfire Secures $45k in FHLB Funding for Local Habitat for Humanity

Wildfire Credit Union is investing in affordable housing throughout the region with $45,000 in Community Multiplier grant funding awarded to Habitat for Humanity of Bay County, Midland County Habitat for Humanity, and Saginaw-Shiawassee Habitat for Humanity. The grants are made possible through the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis' (FHLBank Indianapolis) Community Multiplier – Member Match program, which supports affordable housing initiatives through grants matched by participating financial institutions.
The $45,000 will be divided equally among the three Habitat for Humanity affiliates, with each receiving $18,750, including Wildfire's matching contribution. The funding will support their ongoing efforts to help local individuals and families access safe, affordable housing and achieve greater housing stability. "We're pleased to support the important work of Habitat for Humanity throughout our region," said Ben Denay, CEO of Wildfire Credit Union. "This funding will help strengthen the efforts of the three Habitats for Humanity operating in the counties we serve as they work to expand access to safe, affordable housing for individuals and families in our communities."
