It is necessary from time to time to re-examine what life insurance is and why all of us should know its many benefits. From a practical standpoint, life insurance is protection against financial loss resulting from death. Legally, a life insurance certificate (policy) is a contract which promises to pay a specific amount of money to a named beneficiary when death occurs. Who needs life insurance? First and foremost, families need it. A well planned life insurance program can provide financial security for the family’s present needs and, at the same time, build funds for the future. Women need life insurance, whether at home or on the job, married or single. It provides immediate security for loved ones and can build cash value for retirement. Homeowners need life insurance because it can keep the home in the family, free and clear, if a breadwinner dies prematurely. For young adults and children, life insurance can help guarantee a head start in life.

When you buy life insurance, you want coverage that fits your needs. You must first decide how much you need, for how long and what you can afford to pay. You should then find out what plans of insurance are available to meet your needs and pick the one that best suits you. All life insurance policies agree to pay a specified amount of money when you die, but all policies are not the same. Some provide permanent protection while others provide temporary protection. Some policies build up cash values while others do not. Some policies combine different kinds of insurance. Your choice should be based on your needs and what you can afford. Our Association offers Ordinary Life, 20 Pay Life, the Provider and Single Premium Whole Life plans of insurance. We also offer Term plans, which include the Yearly Renewable Term, 10 Year Renewable Term and Special Juvenile Term to 25. Remember, when you enroll in one of our life insurance plans, you automatically become eligible for added fraternal benefits that will make your life better. These benefits, not offered by most commercial companies, give your certificate extra value. These benefits include our Newborn Children Benefit and Graduating High School Seniors Benefit. For more information on these two benefits, please feel free to contact your local sales representative. If you would like a brochure or any information on the insurance plans that we offer, feel free to contact your local sales representative or call us toll-free at the Home Office, and we will be more than happy to send you information on these plans. Feel free to call us from 8:15 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (EST) Monday through Friday at 1-800-848- PENN (7366).
