$30K Grant from FHLB Dallas and Texas Capital Supports Small Business Growth

Entrepreneurial Center to Fund In-Depth Technical Assistance with Grant

SAN ANTONIO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--San Antonio, Texas, entrepreneurs are getting a boost from $30,000 in grant funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas) and Texas Capital. The banks awarded the Partnership Grant Program (PGP) funds to The Maestro Entrepreneur Center during a ceremonial check presentation today.

The Maestro Entrepreneur Center provides resources and tools to help support small businesses by helping them scale beyond the $1 million threshold.

The center plans to use the PGP funds for its “Accelerate Your Venture” program, which provides in-depth, in-person technical assistance to small business owners. The grant will help pay for instructors, training materials and support staff.

FHLB Dallas’ PGP offers up to a 5:1 match of member contributions—up to $25,000 per FHLB Dallas member—to support community-based organizations involved in affordable housing or economic development activities that complement other FHLB Dallas community investment programs. The program is funded annually, with grants distributed through participating FHLB Dallas members—in this case Texas Capital.

“PGP funds will provide Maestro Center the ability to help local small businesses increase their revenue potential,” said Ricky Maldonado, San Antonio Market President at Texas Capital.

Geremy Landin, executive director of The Maestro Entrepreneur Center, said the grant will fund added capacity.

“It will allow us to deepen our impact and continue empowering small business owners who are the backbone of San Antonio,” he said.

Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas, emphasized the importance of PGP funding for grassroots organizations.

“We’re proud to collaborate with Texas Capital to deliver PGP funding that helps small nonprofits expand their reach,” Mr. Hettrick said. “These grants are vital for building capacity and sustaining the essential services they provide to our communities.”
