Why Choose KofC Insurance?
Brother Knights and their families often ask this question. Although the reasons are obvious, they are sometimes forgotten. Consider the list below. They are facts about your Fraternal Life Insurance Company, the Knights of Columbus.
Our Beginnings; A Sanctuary
In the late 19th century, North America was experiencing an influx of people from all over the world, particularly Europe. Many people were relegated to living in unsanitary conditions, and performing hazardous jobs for poor pay. Such was life for Catholics in New Haven, Connecticut.
The untimely death of the family breadwinner often devastated a family. In 1882, a young Catholic priest, Father Michael J. McGivney, curate at St. Mary's Church in New Haven, envisioned an organization to help Catholic families deal with this crisis. Out of his vision the Knights of Columbus was founded. We are currently the largest Catholic, family, fraternal organization in the world, and boast a members-only insurance program that is among the strongest in the industry.

This is just a partial list. Remember that premium/interest rates are not the only consideration when buying life insurance/annuities. You may find cheaper insurance/higher interest rates elsewhere, however, consider all the facts. You are a fraternalist. You should support your Fraternal Order. After all, why did you join the order…for service to your church, community, and fellow man? “We are Brothers helping Brothers and providing for the care and welfare of our Catholic widows and orphans.”
Supreme Knight Emeritus Virgil Dechant – “To me the Order’s Insurance Program is a must! Without it, we would be forced to do what other organizations and movements must do – spend most of our time raising money for operating expenses and to carry on our projects! Per capita assessments (dues) barely cover the cost of the Columbia Magazine!”
Knights of Columbus Privacy Commitment to Our Insureds
The Knights of Columbus is committed to protecting the privacy of our insureds.
At some point in the past, you may have given us certain personal information. This information included your name, age, address, marital status and social security number. If you applied for life or long-term care insurance, you may have also given us: (1) employment and medical information and (2) access to your health history, mode of living, hobbies and other personal data. The only information collected was that needed to underwrite your application.
We maintain a high level of confidentiality concerning our insureds. Our staff has been trained in the handling and protection of personal information. Oversight of these matters is strict. Our staff understands that improper disclosure of personal data is a serious matter. If we ask an outside company to help us with our insurance operations, we require it to adhere to the same standards as we do.
Unless you have given us your written permission, no affiliates or third party non-affiliates have access to your insurance records other than as necessary to assist us in administering our insurance operations. We never sell lists of the names and addresses of our insureds to any vendor of goods or services.
Access to your records is limited to: (1) our employees who are working with your file and (2) employees of organizations which are under contract with us and which adhere to our standards. Should we be forced to disclose information in connection with a civil suit or a criminal investigation, we must comply. Such instances are, however, very rare.
Our policy of protecting the security of personal data also extends to former insureds who are no longer covered by us.
While personal information related to you as an insured will not be disclosed, except as stated above, if you are a member of the Knights of Columbus, we may share your identifying membership information, such as name, address, telephone number and age, with affiliated Knights of Columbus nonprofit organizations, such as Knights of Columbus Charities, Inc., to inform you of opportunities that may be of interest to you. We may also share this information with companies working for these nonprofit organizations. We require that these nonprofit organizations and the companies working for them comply with our privacy policy.
