Regions announces new initiative to support local charitable giving priorities

Regions Bank is known for its hand in community events, nonprofit organizations and more efforts around Birmingham. On Monday, April 15, Regions announced the launch of its Philanthropic Solutions Group to promote the growth of organizations and individuals across the Magic City.

Here’s what we know.

Philanthropic Solutions will serve families, individuals + organizations across Birmingham

According to a press release from Regions, this group is made up of a team of advisors in the bank’s Wealth Management division. The goal is to provide support for clients’ asset management, mission and charitable giving priorities.

The group will support:

• Families
• Individuals
• Nonprofit organizations
• Private foundations
• Public charities

These clients will benefit from the resources, solutions and insights from advisors experienced in charitable giving, nonprofit administration, investment leadership and more.

“For decades, Regions Wealth Management has been a trusted resource for clients who have a purpose and passion for using their resources to advance good work across our communities.

With the launch of the Philanthropic Solutions group, we’re enhancing how we deliver guidance, insights and solutions through a centralized focus on helping clients through the dynamics of stewarding their investment assets and portfolio construction. That, in turn, can deepen clients’ charitable missions and leave a strong legacy.”
