Community Involvement

American Income founder Bernard Rapoport believed that if you take from the community, you must also give back to the community, whether it's where you live, work or visit.

When AIL representatives visit customers in their homes, they ask for a donation of non-perishable foods to help stock local food banks. Each holiday season, local offices collect toys for children in need. When disaster strikes, AIL is on the front lines to help provide what is needed.
