facility's main fl oor will continue to
help the community grow. Commercial
Bank partnered with the nonprofi t Sustainable
Business Ventures to set aside
the space for entrepreneurs. One room
will be a tele-training center, or a training
room for entrepreneurs. " People
with expertise in setting up businesses
will do tele-training so that entrepreneurs
here can view the training classes, "
Litteral says. The other room will be
used as an incubator for entrepreneurs
wanting to start their own businesses.
The bank reached out beyond its
own four walls to help the community
in other ways. " After the tornado,
we reduced interest rates for a period
of about two years for auto and home
purchases for people impacted by the
tornado, " he says. " We also partnered
with Habitat for Humanity to build
about 25 homes. " This partnership enabled
Habitat to qualify for some grant
money through the Federal Home
Loan Bank of Cincinnati, of which
Commercial Bank is a member.
Commercial Bank also worked with
Frontier Housing, a regional housing
nonprofi t, on a similar arrangement.
" Since we are a Federal Home Loan
Bank member, it allowed Frontier to
get grant money, and we were able to
close about seven or eight diff erent
loans with them, " Litteral says.
Looking to federal funding
For many other of the bank's in-house
customers, Commercial Bank began
to utilize the Disaster Reconstruction
Program off ered through the Federal
Home Loan Bank, which provides funds
for people impacted by disasters. The
program provides qualifi ed applicants
with up to $20,000 of disaster recovery
money. " For example, if someone wants
to build or buy a house for $100,000,
and if they meet the basic qualifi cations
of the program, they can get the home
for $80,000, " Litteral says.
And for the community at large,
the bank installed a web-enabled tool
called the West Liberty Energy Effi -
