Description: Thrivent Financial for Lutherans was founded as Luther Union in 1917 by lifelong Lutherans Jacob Preus, a Minnesota insurance commissioner, and Herman Ekern, a former Wisconsin insurance commissioner, who proposed launching a not-for-profit mutual aid society. In 1920, it changed its name to Lutheran Brotherhood. It adopted its current name in 2001 after merging with the fraternal benefit society Aid Association for Lutherans. The company is a faith-based membership organization that offers financial products and services in the U.S., including annuities, banking products, church and institution financing, financial advising, insurance, IRAs, and mutual funds and investments. Its insurance products include life, disability income, long-term care, Medicare supplement, major medical and business insurance. In addition to these products and services, as the U.S.'s largest fraternal benefit society, the company promotes the value of community through a number of outreach programs that benefit individuals, families and institutions. It is based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. More
