When a community bank steps in to help a local nonprofit navigate the grant process, the ripple effects can be felt in the homes of the most vulnerable residents. That’s the story behind the newly announced AHEAD Program funding for Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada (RTSNV), a nonprofit that provides no-cost home repairs and accessibility upgrades to low-income homeowners, including seniors, veterans, and individuals with disabilities.
LAS VEGAS, NV, UNITED STATES, October 30, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Lexicon Bank is proud to announce that Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada (RTSNV) has been awarded funding through the AHEAD Program, supporting the nonprofit’s continued work to provide critical home repairs and improve housing stability for vulnerable homeowners throughout Southern Nevada.
The grant opportunity was not a solo effort. Lexicon Bank worked alongside RTSNV to support the application, helping connect the community organization with resources that can further its mission and expand its impact across the region.

RTSNV’s core work focuses on making homes safer, healthier, and more accessible for those who might otherwise be unable to afford necessary modifications. With the AHEAD Program grant in hand, the organization will be able to extend its reach and continue its mission of helping residents remain safely and independently in their own homes.
“Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada does incredible work for individuals and families throughout our community, and we are proud to support their mission,” said Stacy Watkins, President & CEO of Lexicon Bank. “This grant represents what can happen when financial institutions and nonprofits work together to connect community needs with valuable resources. We are excited to see the impact this funding will have across Southern Nevada.”
The AHEAD Program—which stands for Affordable Housing Program, Economic Development and Housing—provides grants through participating financial institutions to support organizations and initiatives focused on economic development and community needs. This particular award underscores the role that banks can play in channeling funding to grassroots efforts.
“This grant will make a meaningful difference in our ability to serve homeowners throughout Southern Nevada and continue creating safer, healthier homes for those who need them most,” said Bob Cleveland of Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada. “We are incredibly grateful to Lexicon Bank for recognizing the importance of our mission and for helping us access this opportunity. Partnerships like this allow us to reach more neighbors, strengthen our communities and make a lasting impact right here at home.”
For Lexicon Bank, this grant support reflects a broader commitment to strengthening the Southern Nevada community through meaningful nonprofit partnerships and relationship-driven banking—a philosophy that has guided the institution since its founding.
