Give Back to the YLD!
YOU INSURE THE FUTURE
As a member of the Young Lawyers Division, you have no shortage of responsibilities-your clients, your firms, your families, yourself and the advancement of your profession to name just the significant ones. And here's a way to make a positive impact on all of your obligations-Insurance coverage through the ABE.
INSURANCE PRODUCTS
ABA members are eligible to apply for American Bar Endowment-sponsored insurance programs that have been specifically designed by lawyers for lawyers.
- Term Life Insurance
- Long and Mid-Term Disability Insurance
- Catastrophic Major Medical Insurance
- Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance
- Hospital Income Insurance
- Office Overhead Expense Insurance
A POLICY OF GIVING
Here's how it works. Insurance dividends (net of ABE expenses) are the primary source of ABE grants. About 90% of members choose to contribute the dividends to the Endowment, making them eligible for an income tax deduction. In this way, members meet their professional obligations to improve the quality of the justice system while providing valuable insurance protection for their families and themselves.
Visit us on the web at www.abendowment.org for insurance plan information, personalized rate quotes, to complete an application, and for information on our charitable programs, including our ABE Charitable Gift Fund (Donor Advised Fund).
EVERY POLICY RAISES THE BAR
American Bar Endowment grants have helped sustain more than 200 law-related public service and educational projects and more than 30 major research programs in the field of law.
For 2004-2005: Endowment grants to the American Bar Foundation will total $3,819,532. Grants to the ABA's Fund for Justice and Education will total $ 3,819,532.
