You like the idea of life insurance that takes action for family, community and planet, but first you have a few questions.

 

So, what is life insurance?

Life insurance is financial support for those you leave behind when you die. You buy a life insurance policy from a company (called an insurer) that will pay your beneficiaries (you decide who those people are) a set amount of money at the time of your death. You pay premiums every year to keep the policy in place, and in exchange for those premiums, the insurer agrees to pay your beneficiaries a death benefit.

For example, you can buy a life insurance policy that will pay $1,000,000 to the people you care about if you die. You may be thinking:  "Wow, that would be expensive." Well, it may cost a lot less than you think. A healthy 30 year old woman can get $1,000,000 life insurance for less than $32 per month. Don’t need to leave a million dollars behind? You can choose a smaller amount and pay even less.

How much impact could we create together?

$1 Billion is possible with just 20,000 customers.

Here's how we create enormous impact:

  • Family.  20,000 people purchase $500,000 of life insurance from Bluestone.  
  • Community.  Our product's built-in Impact Rider  generates $100 million dollars for nonprofits. 
  • Planet.  Bluestone's donations to nonprofits through 1% for the Planet and impact investing have a 10X multiplier effect=$1 Billion.

Why would I need life insurance?

  • Do you have debts, like student loans, that someone else could be responsible for if something happened to you?
  • Are you planning on getting married or thinking about having a baby in the next few years? Getting life insurance before some of life’s big events is smart adulting.  It insures that financial assets, liabilities and responsibilities are covered and not a burden.
  • In addition to leaving money to the people you care about, you can leave money to the non-profits that you love in the 1% for the Planet network.
  • Being young and healthy is an ideal time to buy life insurance as it gets more expensive as you age, and if a health issue develops in the future, you may not be able to get life insurance at all.

What coverage do I have at work?

Most companies offer 1-2 times your income in their group insurance policies.  While that's a good start, most people with dependents or a mortgage need 10-15 times their income which can create a gap between what you have and what you need.

Bluestone Life can help you close the gap and support nonprofits working for social and environmental impact — at no additional cost to you.

How can my life insurance make a difference?

Impact is built right into our products, so every policy benefits nonprofits in the 1% for the Planet community working for social and environmental justice. 

Your financial decisions have impact

How you bank, invest and protect your assets matters because your dollars go to work after depositing them or paying a premium. 

As a 1% for the Planet member, you know we give 1% of our revenues to nonprofits, but we also give you a complimentary benefit that goes to a nonprofit when your policy is paid.

For Example:

  • $1,000,000 you purchase to protect your family
  • $10,000 additional complimentary coverage to protect community & planet

We call this our Premiums with Purpose and here's how it works:
