K of C Insurance – Your Shield For Life
Since our founding in 1882, the primary mission of the K of C has been to protect families from the financial ruin due to death of the breadwinner. In the beginning, Venerable Father Michael J. McGivney and his fellow Knights passed the hat to benefit widows and orphans. From then, the Order has grown to include top-rated life insurance, long-term care insurance and retirement products. With more than $92 billion of insurance in force and 1,400 full-time staff, we are proudly fulfilling Fr. McGivney’s vision. Click for Video >
