For over a century, Lincoln Federal Savings Bank (lincolnfed.com) (Member FDIC, Equal Housing Lender) has been doing more than just banking—they’ve been building relationships, one customer at a time. Rooted in Nebraska values and community spirit, this full-service bank has spent the last 119 years helping individuals and families achieve their financial goals—whether it’s saving for their first home, buying their dream home, or simply finding a great checking or savings account.

“We’re depositor-owned. That means no outside shareholders and no competing interests,” says Alan LaFollette, Vice President, Home Lending. “We have a long-standing reputation of fostering a community-focused culture. Our customer-centered mission drives everything we do.”

That commitment hasn’t gone unnoticed. Lincoln Federal Savings Bank is the #1 mortgage lender in Closed End Originations in the Lancaster County MSA, according to the 2024 HMDA report. Their team of expert loan officers are NIFA certified and consistently recognized among the best in the industry, earning accolades like the Scotsman Guide and Champion’s Circle awards.

A Different Kind of Banking Experience

While some banks might feel cold or corporate, Lincoln Federal leans into a small-town sensibility. It’s not uncommon for customers to be greeted by name when they walk in—and that personalized service is something clients remember long after the paperwork is signed.

“You can’t ask for better service. This is the kind of place they will know you by name,” says customer Matt H. “They treat you like family, with a small-town feel. It’s great to be treated like a human rather than a number.”

Customer John B., who worked with Lincoln Federal during the mortgage process, echoed the sentiment: “They kept me in the loop every step of the way, making sure I fully understood each part of the process. Their communication was top-notch, and I always felt like a priority. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with.”

Growing Community Roots

Whether it’s financial services or community outreach, Lincoln Federal’s dedication doesn’t stop at the front door. From hosting their 20th annual Make-A-Wish Golf Tournament (with a $20,000 goal!) to fun campaigns like Making Branches Bright, the bank gives back in meaningful, creative ways. In 2025, their annual tree-decorating contest awarded $500 to Operation Super Jack, the winning charity nominated by a local branch.

Their recent open house in Omaha at the new 15858 W Dodge Road location is just another example of how Lincoln Federal is expanding its footprint to better serve the region, while never losing sight of what’s most important: people.

With nearly 120 years of trusted service behind them—and a deeply rooted mission of putting customers first—Lincoln Federal Savings Bank continues to offer “Personal Banking Like You Remember.” And in today’s fast-paced world, that kind of care is not only rare, it’s invaluable.
