Property and liability coverage for colleges and universities.
Serving you by offering high quality insurance products to meet the specific needs of Christian colleges and universities is our priority. Brotherhood Mutual has insured Christian ministries since 1917. We insured our first college in 1960, and that college is still a customer today.
At Brotherhood Mutual, we embrace your mission—including your challenges and vision for the future—and can offer a personalized policy to meet your specific needs. This approach focuses on providing a variety of coverages under one policy, which can help shield you from unbudgeted expenses and avoid costly gaps and overlaps.
“We choose Brotherhood Mutual based on the combination of service and cost. Because Brotherhood Mutual is focused on serving Christian ministries, I feel confident Brotherhood Mutual understands the values of my organization as well as the unique needs we have as a Christian organization.”
