About Us
Welcome to the heart of Belzoni, the Catfish Capitol, where we embrace both small-town charm and innovative spirit. Here, the Belzoni-Humphreys Development Foundation is at the core of fostering community growth and spirit. Our little town is famous for its rich heritage and vibrant community events that bring us all together, celebrating the uniqueness of our area.
Each year, the town becomes alive with the World Catfish Festival—a significant highlight that draws crowds from near and far. This festival isn’t just about celebrating our favorite local catfish delicacies but also about gatherings filled with joy, music, and shared memories. The enthusiasm doesn’t stop there, as Belzoni hosts numerous community events such as parades, local clubs, and exciting races that create a festive atmosphere year-round.
Through the Foundation, we prioritize inclusivity and engagement, providing events like the Little Miss Catfish Pageant and promoting programs such as the Boys and Girls Club of the Mississippi Delta, which recently opened its ninth location here. Our initiatives aim at uplifting family and community life, instilling pride, and ensuring longevity for our vibrant traditions.
We honor our origins and continuously seek to engage more with the surrounding communities, keeping the spirit of Belzoni alive and thriving. We’d love for you to join us, partake in our celebrations, enjoy our signature events, and experience our town's lively atmosphere that stands as a beacon of community collaboration and hometown spirit.
