💟 Grandparents, this one is for you!

Give the gift of *WHOLE LIFE* insurance for your grandchild.
Erie Insurance offers single-pay whole life, which is a great option for grandparents to purchase for their grandchild. For one lump sum payment, a child gets coverage for life. Wow! 🤩

👶🏼 Example:
A $50,000 whole life policy for a baby girl under 1 year, would be roughly $4,000 for single-pay.
The same policy for a baby boy would be slightly more at ~$4,600.

As an insurance broker, our service to you is always free. We will answer every question you have and guide you with our expertise. Just want to start the conversation? We are here for that too.

“I have life insurance through my employer, why would I need an additional policy?”

Employer-provided life insurance is a GREAT benefit, but it often isn’t enough to fully protect a family. Reasons you would need an additional policy:

💰 It may not be enough—Employer plans are often a multiple of salary or a relatively small flat amount. Your mortgage, debts, childcare (😱), college savings, and income replacement can add up to much more.

❌ You may lose it when you leave—Many employer policies are tied to your job. If you change jobs, retire, or become self-employed, the coverage most likely will end or change.

👶🏼 Your needs can change—Marriage, having children, buying a home, or taking on more debt can increase the amount your family would need.

👏🏼 You control a personal policy—An individual policy stays with you regardless of where you work.

Life Insurance is not fun to talk about, but we will try to be clear and upfront about any questions you may have.

Call us for a NO pressure quote and to start the conversation.

“Who are you lifting up?” Michelle Mulimba

I had the opportunity to attend Columbus Area Chamber of Commerce, Indiana annual Women in Leadership luncheon 🥗✨

First up, Amanda Cox, owner of the Know Better Company. She shared her inspiring story of going after her dreams—while pregnant with twins— because one person said yes to her idea of creating a company where she teaches leaders how to make their staff feel heard and seen.
A little bias as her friend but she knocked it out of the park. Great job, Amanda 👏🏼

🏆 Today’s honorees were:
*Michelle Mulimba — Stunna’s
*Danielle Nickerson — Corp. Social Responsibility Manager of Toyota
*Jen Morrill — Scholarship & Grant Officer at Heritage Fund
*Cindy Frey — Columbus Chamber (retired)

All four had beautiful, memorable speeches🌷
Each one of the ladies are so much more than 1 title. They carry many hats. They lift others up, expecting nothing in return. They also help, serve, and guide the next generation.

As always, great event by the Chamber:
Crissy, Kami and Aubrey 🌟

Yesterday, we participated in the D.A.R.E. golf outing. We’ve supported this event for many, many years! Unfortunately, we didn’t win the steak 🥩 dinners for a year or the $10,000 hole in one—courtesy of US!

Guess there’s always next year……. ⛳️

📣 We are honored and excited to announce that we are this year’s Great Girls, Wonderful Women Title Sponsor. This is the first time our office has been a Title Sponsor for an event.

I (Bri) have attended this event many times and it’s safe to say it’s one of my favorites for many reasons. My dad always told my sister and me growing up, “You can be anything you want.” Those simple words instilled something in me that has lasted a lifetime—the belief that I was capable of more and that my dreams mattered.

🫶🏼 The luncheon is designed to bring together community leaders and girls from Foundation for Youth programs, giving them the confidence that they can be anything they want to be mattered.

One might ask, “But you have THREE sons. Why does this luncheon matter so much to you?” It’s important to note, although the day of event is centered around lifting the young girls up in our community—the money raised from this event supports *both* girls and boys at Foundation for Youth:
✏️ Boys & Girls Club
📚 Big Brothers Big Sisters
⛺️ Columbus Youth Camp
🏀 Youth Athletics + more!
