TUPELO, Miss. – March 21, 2022 - Cadence Bank, formerly BancorpSouth Bank, announced today its $200,000 contribution to Youth Villages, Inc., supporting their mission to help children and families live successfully.

The donation will be used to help Youth Villages develop innovative programs that serve children and families dealing with the most challenging situations. The organization tests the limits of existing services and creates new opportunities that lead to positive long-term impacts on children and families.

“BancorpSouth is very proud to partner with an organization like Youth Villages, which plays a very important role in our communities by offering services that help our youth and their families live successful lives,” said Grant Montgomery, BancorpSouth president-Madison County, Mississippi Market.

Youth Villages is a nonprofit organization that provides services nationwide to young people with a wide range of emotional, mental and behavioral problems and are currently in or at risk of being placed in the foster care system.
