Why
Should I buy Life Insurance from the Knights of Columbus?
I am often asked
that question by concerned Brother Knights and their families.
Although the reasons are obvious, they are sometimes forgotten.
Consider the list below. These are facts about your Fraternal
Life Insurance Company, the Knights of Columbus. If you
considering doing business with another company, ask
yourself...Do they offer this for my family?
- Has the highest rating assigned by
Standard & Poor's and the AM Best companies.
- Supports Catholic Colleges and
Universities with grants, and endowments.
- Provides Scholarship
Programs for
sons and daughters of members who attend Catholic
colleges and universities.
- Helps to educate Catholic Priests
and Brothers.
- Pays one of the highest dividend
rates in the industry.
- Provides scholarships to sons and
daughters of member policemen, firemen and military
personnel who are killed or permanently disabled in the
line of duty as the result of criminal violence .
- Provides charity to victims of
disaster or calamity.
- Campaigns against pornography and
smut.
- Provides money and aid in the
campaign against abortion.
- Provides insurance at standard
rates for member's children who are mentally retarded.
- Provides money for aid to the
mentally retarded.
- Provides information to people
about the Catholic faith.
- Provides low interest loans to
Catholic churches and seminaries for building construction, mortgages,
etc.
- Promotes youth activity
organizations which are intended to make youth morally
and religiously responsible.
- Provides FREE accidental death
benefits for members and spouses.
- Provides a Family Fraternal
Benefit with an Orphan's benefit for members
participating in the insurance program.
- Provides all Permanent Policies of
$50,000 and over have an "Accelerated Benefit Option (ABO)". This option
allows the owner to request a partial advanced payment of the policy's death
benefit while living. If the insured has a life expectancy of twelve months
or less, and that is attested to by a physician, the Knights of Columbus,
upon the owner's request, will pay up to 50% of the base policy's face
amount before death occurs (up to a $100,000 limit).
This is just a partial list. Remember,
premium is not the only consideration when buying life insurance.
You may find cheaper insurance elsewhere, however consider all
the facts. You are a fraternalist and you should support your
Fraternal Order. After all, why did you join the Order?
"We are Brothers helping Brothers and providing for the care
and welfare of our Catholic widows and orphans."
