The American Fraternal Alliance is here!
OAK BROOK, ILL., January 2011 - The premier association of fraternal benefit societies in the U.S. has adopted a new identity to better reflect its purpose, membership and value to communities throughout the nation: American Fraternal Alliance.
The organization, which will be known informally as "the Fraternals" or "Fraternal Alliance," has unveiled a new logo and tagline - United in service and financial security - as part of its new identity. Transformation of the organization's website and promotional materials are also underway. The association, formed in 1886, previously was called the National Fraternal Congress of America (NFCA).
The American Fraternal Alliance is a non-profit trade association with 70 members, each of which is a fraternal benefit society. UCT is a member-society of the Fraternal Alliance. Member-societies operate in 50 states, the District of Columbia and Canada. They represent nearly nine million individuals who participate in 31,500 local chapters - among America’s largest member-volunteer networks. In the last year alone, members invested more than 91 million hours in community works and contributed $400 million to charitable programs supporting community service projects.
