Ongoing HBCU partnership
At Regions Bank fans and graduates of several historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) can now show their school spirit every time they make a purchase with a Regions CheckCard.
Adding to a growing list of university and sports themed CheckCards, Regions now offers cards featuring four HBCUs — Alabama A&M, Alabama State, Florida A&M and Tennessee State.
“These new CheckCards represent an expansion of our ongoing HBCU partnership,” said Tom Brooks, head of Regions Cards and Payments. “Regions is proud to support the pride and passion associated with HBCUs – not only in our ongoing involvement with the schools, but also in letting their fans and graduates show their support, too.”
The new CheckCards are available now online via the Regions YourPix Studio(SM).
Regions HBCU Partnership is collaboration with six Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in the Southeastern United States supporting financial education, academics, athletics, and alumni engagement.
