Consider offering these employee benefits to your staff.
How would it be for your employee to lose a spouse or receive a terrible and scary diagnosis of their own illness? Could they pay their bills or be hit with a financial disaster if they can't work? What would happen to their family?
This is YOUR chance to be the HERO and help your staff make a good financial decision for life's hard times.

Student Accident Insurance (Available in Western States only)
Students and adult volunteers are covered:
- On their way to school;
- While at school or a school-sponsored event;
- On their way home from school
In today’s litigious society, any non-profit organization is at risk for lawsuits stemming from accidents and injuries. Here is a way to help reduce this risk. This policy will pay up to $500,000 for medical and dental bills. Included is a $10,000 death benefit. This is called a “full excess” policy, meaning if there is primary insurance, this policy will pay deductibles or co-pays. If there is no primary insurance, this will drop down and become the primary policy. There is no deductible. Call (800) 685-4519 or email [email protected] for your application.
