Oak Valley Community Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oak Valley
Bancorp (NASDAQ: OVLY), announced they have received approval on a
2022 AHEAD grant of $27,500, which was submitted to the Federal
Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLBank San Francisco) on behalf
of Jessica’s House.
The communities in Stanislaus and Merced counties are one step
closer to getting a needed boost in grief support for children,
teens, young adults, and their families. This highly impactful
grant will support more grieving families by expanding community
training and development programs, while creating a support network
that includes first responders, chaplains, hospitals, funeral
homes, clinicians, and therapists. Additionally, the grant will
help pay for training, new materials in English and Spanish, and
events for communities and schools.
As a sponsor of FHLBank San Francisco’s Community Impact
Programs and advocate for the services Jessica’s House provides to
our community, Oak Valley Community Bank authored and provided
supplemental input for this grant. Jose Sabala, Oak Valley’s
Community Reinvestment Officer, remarked, “I am thrilled we had the
opportunity to sponsor this grant for Jessica’s House. As a
community bank, we seek occasions where we can partner with other
organizations to make a positive impact in our neighborhoods. I’m
grateful that the FHLBank San Francisco recognized the need for
funds to be distributed in the communities we call home.”
“Jessica House’s focus on making available community training
and development programs and creating a support network with caring
professionals will make a lasting positive impression for many as
they persevere through a devastating time,” Marietta Núñez, senior
vice president and community investment officer at FHLBank San
Francisco. “We are proud to partner with our member, Oak Valley
Community Bank, to enable Jessica’s House to offer a safe place for
children, teens, and young adults and their families grieving with
loss.”
