“Community is at the heart of everything we do, and we are honored to stand alongside our colleagues and neighbors in California during this time of need,” said Stacy Watkins, President and CEO of Lexicon Bank.

LAS VEGAS (February 3, 2025) – Lexicon Bank is proud to announce a $5,000 contribution to the California Community Bankers Network (“CCBN”) and Independent Community Bankers Association (“ICBA”) Foundation Disaster Relief Program to support the ongoing recovery and rebuilding efforts in California. These funds will directly aid local organizations providing critical assistance to community banker colleagues, displaced families, and others impacted by the devastating fires that have ravaged the southern region of the state, destroying neighborhoods and disrupting communities.

Additionally, Lexicon Bank has filed a request with The Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco to match the contribution two to one, potentially bringing the total donation to $15,000.

As a CCBN member, Lexicon Bank values its ties to southern California. The contribution recognizes the importance of coming together as a community to support neighbors in need. Though based in southern Nevada, Lexicon Bank understands that the resilience of the broader community of community banks—and the neighborhoods they serve—depends on collective action during challenging times.

“Community is at the heart of everything we do, and we are honored to stand alongside our colleagues and neighbors in California during this time of need,” said Stacy Watkins, President and CEO of Lexicon Bank. “While we are based in southern Nevada, the fires impacting California's families, businesses, and communities hit close to home. Our contribution to the ICBA Foundation Disaster Relief Program is a small way we can make a big difference, and we know our community of community banks would do the same for us.”

The ICBA Foundation Disaster Relief Program plays a vital role in ensuring timely and effective support reaches those who need it most, from families seeking shelter to businesses working to reopen and rebuild. Through this partnership, Lexicon Bank demonstrates its commitment to fostering stronger, more resilient communities locally and across state lines.

“Our contribution reflects Lexicon Bank’s dedication to going beyond our community to make a meaningful impact on our fellow community bankers and friends,” said James R. Gordon, Executive Vice President and COO/CFO of Lexicon Bank. “We are grateful to the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco for consideration in matching our donation, which will help amplify the resources available to help Californians recover and rebuild. Supporting community banks and their team members and communities during times of crisis is part of who we are.”
