Accomplishments of a Benefit Fund

A new Fund may start by taking over 1 or 2 benefits from the employer. An established fund may offer 10 or more benefits to participants and their families. As an example, a Fund on Long Island receives approximately $1200 per member annually. The Fund has been in existence nearly 30 years. Here is a listing of benefits members and their families can receive.

$100,000 Member Term Life Coverage

The potential to provide benefits and save members and their family money is enormous. The work is rewarding.
