WEA Member Benefits partners with Ladder to offer new online term life insurance for PK-12 Public School Employees

MADISON, Wis., June 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- WEA Member Benefits, the Wisconsin-based company that provides personal insurance and retirement and investment programs to promote the financial well-being of public school employees and their families, has partnered with Ladder to offer term life insurance policies to those employed at PK-12 public schools nationwide.

As a result of the partnership, PK-12 public school employees and their families can purchase a low-cost term life insurance policy via an easy, online application process through the website at weabenefits.com/lifeinsurance.

Policies through Ladder offer the unique opportunity for individuals to "ladder" (adjust their coverage) when needed. Policies provide coverage between $100,000 to $8 million for terms ranging from 10-30 years.

"Public school employees work very hard and deserve to have access to convenient and affordable life insurance protection to insure they have the coverage needed to protect their loved ones' financial security," said Dave Kijek, WEA Member Benefits President and CEO. "Partnering with Ladder provides just that. Through their on-line application and underwriting, most educators can get coverage in less than 15 minutes."

Life insurance is an important part of a family's financial stability and well-being. Especially with the rising cost of living, if a family is dependent on an individual's income, the family would likely struggle if that person were to pass away. Life insurance is a simple answer to a very difficult question: "How will my loved ones manage financially if something were to happen to me?"
