About Modern Woodmen
Modern Woodmen of America was founded in 1883 to clear financial burdens – not trees. As a fraternal financial services organization, Modern Woodmen’s products and programs support financial security, quality family life and community impact – the common bonds that unite our members nationwide.
Subject to change, fraternal programs are not part of the contract and may have specific eligibility requirements. Some programs are not available to all members.
