In 2016, CommunityWorks in West Virginia, Inc. (CWWV) was selected as a recipient of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLBank) Disaster Relief Grant. CWWV in partnership with United Bank was awarded $400,000 to help families in need.
The Disaster Relief Program was designed to assist households affected by flooding in federally declared disaster areas in West Virginia. Eligible households whose homes were damaged by flood waters used the Disaster Relief funds for home purchase or owner-occupied rehabilitation.
