A strong team just got stronger.💪🏽

Nathan R. Culp, Community Impact and Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) Officer for First Commonwealth Bank, was unanimously approved to join the Tri-County Housing Board at the Board of Directors meeting on Sept. 23.

Tri-County has been an award-winning leader in providing affordable housing to individuals and families in need in Dauphin, Cumberland and Perry Counties for 36 years,

Culp has more than two decades of banking experience, holding leadership roles spanning retail banking, small business banking, commercial relationship management, and community development.

He was instrumental in securing First Commonwealth Bank’s sponsorship of Tri-County’s Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh’s application for the Affordable Housing Program, which led to the approval of $750,000 for the North 4th Street Homeownership Project in the city of Harrisburg.

Throughout Culp’s career, he has worked closely with nonprofit organizations, affordable housing developers, economic development agencies, municipalities, and community stakeholders to advance affordable housing, small business growth, financial empowerment, and neighborhood revitalization initiatives. His expertise includes community development finance, CRA compliance, strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, and partnership development.

Culp currently serves on the Board of Directors of the City of Bridges Community Land Trust and serves on the Loan Review Committees of Neighborhood Community Development Fund and Regional Development Funding Corporation, helping evaluate financing opportunities that support community and economic development throughout the region.

“I am passionate about, and experienced in, expanding access to capital, fostering strong community partnerships, and strengthening organizations that create economic opportunity and improve the quality of life in the communities they serve,” Culp said.

Tri-County Housing Executive Director Gary Lenker said, “We are energized about Nathan Culp joining our board. He will bring decades of knowledge and front-line experience to our board, along with a lifelong passion for building and rebuilding communities, with each home and block transformed.”

We are celebrating not only community awards, but financial ones from the Cumberland County, PA commissioners! We thank the commissioners for investing in the community building that grows out of a strong housing stock and safe, close-knit neighborhoods that drive economic development and quality of life.

Our Executive Director Gary Lenker and his wife Verna celebrated “out of this world” excellence at the space-themed “Simply the Best” Gala last night.

It is our great pleasure to advance the cause of affordable housing in Dauphin, Cumberland and Perry Counties. Accepting the award for Simply the Best Community Nonprofit is a personal and professional highlight! 🏆

We also want to salute every nonprofit in the region who does incredible work that deserves recognition.

If you’ve ever bought a house, you know the anxiety that comes from the litany of daunting expenses. We are gratified to be able to help low- to moderate-income individuals meet those costs and achieve their dream of finding a house that becomes a home.🏠

Here are some of our favorite pics of our official award-winners.

It’s nice to know that, long after the golf clubs are put away, the generosity and support of these partners have allowed many local people in need of a home and a hand up to get the help they need to make their dream of homeownership come true.
