The importance of life insurance for first responders!


Hi,

I would like to emphasize the importance of life insurance for first responders, and how American Income Life (AIL) can provide valuable coverage for them. As you know, first responders put their lives on the line every day to protect our communities. It's important that they have access to quality life insurance that can provide financial security for their families in the event of a tragedy.

According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), an average of 58,150 firefighter injuries occur annually in the United States. In addition, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) reported that 475 firefighters died while on duty between 2006 and 2015. These statistics demonstrate the significant risks and hazards that first responders face while performing their duties.

AIL has been a trusted provider of life insurance for first responders for nearly 70 years. They understand the unique risks and challenges that first responders face, and they are committed to providing comprehensive coverage that meets their specific needs. By partnering with AIL, your credit union can offer your members access to this valuable coverage, which can provide peace of mind and financial security.

Furthermore, credit unions earning non-interest income is crucial for their growth and sustainability. Non-interest income can be generated through various means such as fees, commissions, and partnerships. A partnership with AIL, for example, can provide credit unions with a value-added benefit for their members while also generating additional income for the credit union.

I urge you to consider the benefits of offering AIL's life insurance program to your members, and to speak with Travis Daniels, the Public Relations/Marketing Representative from AIL, to learn more about how this program can benefit your credit union and its members. Thank you for your dedication to serving your members and for your support of NCOFCU's mission.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 You Need to Prepare Now to Compete for New Fed Gov’t Funded Savings Accounts for Children

WASHINGTON–Credit unions, which often talk about the need for younger members, will now have the opportunity to compete in a new arena for the youngest members of all, as the recently passed reconciliation bill includes language creating and funding for a new savings account for children, with a one-time deposit of $1,000 from the federal government for those born in 2025 through 2028. The new accounts are expected to create a new battleground of competition for credit unions as every provider from banks to fintechs to others seeks to capture the accounts.  The final version of the bill makes the tax-free savings accounts for minors, called Trump accounts, a form of individual retirement account (IRA) under Sec. 408(a), according to the Journal of Accountancy. Under the legislation, the accounts will be IRAs (but not Roth IRAs) for the exclusive benefit of individuals under 18.  About the Contributions “Contributions can only be made in calendar years before the beneficia...

  The Art of Thoughtful Discourse in a Noisy World In an era where opinions flood every corner of social media, news platforms, and casual conversations, the sheer volume of voices can be both inspiring and overwhelming. Everyone seems to have something to say, and while it's a beautiful thing to witness such diverse perspectives, it raises an important question: how can we ensure that our contributions are meaningful and resonate with others? The Power of Evidence-Based Opinions At the heart of impactful communication lies the value of substantiation. Personal views are indeed intriguing and can spark engaging discussions. However, without solid evidence or context to support them, these opinions can quickly lose their potency. When we articulate our thoughts without backing them up, we risk contributing to the noise rather than enhancing the dialogue. To make meaningful contributions, it’s essential to prioritize reasoning over reflexivity. Taking the time to gathe...

The Case for Advisory Committees in Credit Unions

  Grant Sheehan, CEO, NCOFCU The Case for Advisory Committees in Credit Unions: Ensuring Vibrant Leadership and Member Engagement In the world of credit unions, the leadership structures often reflect a unique balance of tradition and innovation. For many credit union boards of directors, tenure can stretch over decades, creating a wealth of experience and stability. However, when these long-serving members retire from the host company, a common phenomenon arises: a reluctance to leave their positions. While their dedication is commendable, this situation can pose challenges to the credit union’s ability to adapt to the evolving needs of its membership. As directors transition into retirement, they may find that their connection to the credit union and its members has diminished. Having spent years in leadership, their focus can inadvertently shift to legacy management—relying heavily on what has historically worked rather than embracing new strategies. This is where t...
