Kris has led with wisdom, integrity and a deep commitment to our members, communities and employees. Her leadership and dedication have helped shape our organization, and her contributions will have a lasting impact for years to come.

Thank you, Kris. May the Force be with you, always. 🌟

As Kris Williams spends her final days with us as president & CEO, we’re taking a moment to recognize the lasting impact she leaves on FHLB Des Moines, and on the people and communities touched by her leadership. ❤️

Under Kris’s guidance, our work became about more than numbers and programs. It became about people, possibilities and creating meaningful pathways to stronger communities and more affordable housing.

Her vision helped bring to life voluntary programs that are making a real and lasting difference: the Member Impact Fund, Mortgage Rate Relief and the Housing Affordability Advance. Together, these initiatives have helped expand access to housing, strengthen community development, support homeowners and provide critical resources to organizations working to make a difference.

The numbers tell an incredible story - but behind every dollar is a person, a family, a home or a community whose life has been touched by this work.

Kris, thank you for leading with purpose, compassion and an unwavering commitment to making a difference. Your impact will live on through the programs you championed, the communities they serve and the many employees fortunate enough to learn from your leadership.

Expanding access to homeownership starts with the right partnerships. 🤝
FHLB Des Moines members play a critical role in opening doors for more homebuyers. Through our Down Payment Products, Home$tart and the Native American Homeownership Initiative, participating members can help eligible households access up to $25,000 in grant funding.

This funding can be used for down payment and closing costs, often one of the biggest barriers to achieving homeownership.

By connecting homebuyers to these resources, our members serve as a powerful catalyst for expanding opportunity and strengthening communities across our district. https://www.fhlbdm.com/products-services/affordable-housing/homestart/

We are incredibly grateful to receive a Member Impact Fund grant from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines through partnership with First Security Bank in Belgrade, part of the Glacier Bank community.

This investment is another reminder of what makes our community so special. Time and again, you've shown up to support our mission, and we couldn't do this work without you. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

In just a few short weeks, we'll break ground on our first homes in the West Post development in Belgrade. Together, we're building more than houses. We're creating opportunities for local families to achieve affordable homeownership. We can't wait to keep this momentum going.
