In addition, the Regions Foundation announced a commitment of $100,000 in grant funding for organizations providing disaster relief and long-term recovery support. The Regions Foundation is a nonprofit initiative funded primarily by Regions Bank.

DISASTER RELIEF:

The $100,000 disaster relief commitment from the Regions Foundation will be divided among various agencies meeting short-term and long-term needs. Initial grants from the $100,000 total will include:

  • $35,000 for the Mayfield Graves County Tornado Relief Fund: The fund is managed by the Mayfield Graves County Chamber of Commerce in collaboration with Graves County Economic Development. The fund will be used to meet a variety of needs for those impacted by the historic storm that devastated Mayfield and other portions of Western Kentucky late on the night of Dec. 10.
  • $50,000 to the American Red Cross: This funding will be used to support people impacted by the tornadoes across a multi-state area including Northeast Arkansas, Middle and Western Tennessee and the St. Louis Metro East area in Illinois.
  • The remaining $15,000 from the $100,000 total will be allocated to organizations based on longer-term needs that emerge in the coming weeks or months.

“One of the greatest ways we can make an impact is by supporting the agencies that know these communities best and are ready to deliver vital support,” said Marta Self, executive director of the Regions Foundation. “We appreciate the work of every relief agency, every first responder, and every community member who is working to make a difference, and we encourage other people, organizations, and businesses to consider ways they, too, can support the important relief work that’s underway.”

In addition to the grants from the Regions Foundation, associates who work at Regions Bank locations across the Mid-South are collecting supplies to help those in need. The supplies will be delivered in a coordinated manner to impacted communities in the coming days.

3Subject to credit approval. Interest will continue to accrue during the period that the payment is skipped or deferred. For installment loans, deferring or skipping payment may extend the maturity of your loan but will not automatically extend any optional insurance. Forbearances, skipped payments, and deferrals generally (a) vary by customer, (b) postpone – rather than forgive – certain payment obligations, and (c) require payment in full of the postponed payments at the end of the forbearance or deferral period, in addition to any other amounts that come due, unless you make other arrangements with Regions to resolve the delinquency.

4New business loan and personal unsecured loan rate discounts may not be combined with other special offers or discounts. Interest will accrue during the optional 90-day payment deferral period for unsecured business loans if elected.
