Real Life Story
“Tom’s motto was: Be prepared. You don’t know what life will hand you.”
Our Scholarship
“Life insurance can’t bring a parent back, but it can make the road afterwards easier for those left behind.”
- Miranda Rivera, whose father died at 44 years old without life insurance
The Life Lessons Scholarship Program grew out of our desire to support students who are struggling financially when there wasn’t a life insurance safety net in place after the death of their parent.
Donate if you’re able: 100% of the proceeds goes directly to the students.
