Our mission is to build a secure future for our Members by providing superior products and benefits. We strive to continually grow and transform to keep pace with the evolving needs of our Members.
You are not a policy number.
Our policyholders are Members, and we’re committed to providing them with exceptional service that puts their needs first. We redirect our profits back to our Membership to maintain competitive rates and services.
We give back to the community.
We believe in vibrant and healthy communities. Teachers Life supports education workers and charities for children and youth. We’ve invested in several mental health initiatives, like our Press Start CoLab Program, the Press Start CoLab High School Program and our mental health and well-being resources.
We are here to stay.
We have been providing our Members peace of mind and exceptional service since 1939. We are a fraternal insurer with a mandate to build better insurance products and services for our community.

The 2024 Scholarship and Bursary Award Recipients
At Teachers Life, supporting our valued Members and their loved ones is a core objective. Our annual Scholarship Awards Program is just one of the ways that we give back to our Members in a meaningful and long-lasting way. To date, we’ve invested over $600,000 in scholarships and bursaries for the families of our Teachers Life Members.
As an insurer dedicated to those who work in education, these awards are a flagship of our Fraternal Benefits Program (Flourish+). This year, we have the pleasure of recognizing 11 exceptional individuals with the Teachers Life Bursary, the J.F. Allen Scholarship, and the Hall & Hall Award. Recipients of these scholarships and bursaries are selected by random draw among all qualified applicants.
Empowering the Next Generation of Leaders
Though their aspirations and post-secondary paths vary, all 11 scholarship and award recipients share a remarkable passion for learning and a unified goal to make a positive impact across Canada. Congratulations to the outstanding 2024 scholarship and bursary recipients! We’re excited to follow your educational journeys and see the valuable ways you’ll contribute to your communities.
