Rebuilding. Recovering. Together. Regions Bank and the Regions Foundation Help Communities Impacted by Hurricane Ian

Regions Bank and the nonprofit Regions Foundation stand in support of communities recovering from Ian’s impacts.

Regions Bank on Tuesday announced a series of financial services to help people and businesses impacted by Hurricane Ian. In addition, the Regions Foundation, a nonprofit initiative funded primarily by Regions Bank, announced a commitment of $225,000 in grant funding for organizations providing disaster relief.

Community Recovery:

The $225,000 total in grant funding from the Regions Foundation will be divided among several agencies meeting short- and long-term needs throughout the Florida Peninsula. From the $225,000 total, specific allocations will include:

“As soon as the storm cleared, nonprofits and relief organizations were on-site delivering emergency resources to hard-hit communities. We are honored to support their important work,” said Marta Mendes-Miguel Self, executive director of the Regions Foundation. “We also encourage people and businesses who are in a position to donate to consider how they can join us in supporting agencies that are on the front lines of hurricane response.”

2The FEMA check no-check-cashing-fee offer is available only to Regions customers; if you are not a Regions customer, you must enroll in Regions Now Banking. No checking account is required to enroll in Now Banking. Regions reserves the right to refuse to cash any check.

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.
