Christian Brothers Services

Christian Brothers Services is a nonprofit organization that administers cooperative programs in the areas of health, retirement, property/casualty, technology, school management and consulting services to church organizations. Founded in 1960 by Brother Joel Damian, FSC, Christian Brothers Services began as a mutual cooperative purchasing group for Chicago area high schools conducted by the De La Salle Christian Brothers. Under Brother Damian?s leadership, the Brothers realized that pooling the financial resources and risk exposures of the schools would allow both the congregation and the individual institutions greater financial strength and leverage to purchase better coverage, with higher limits, at significantly reduced costs; benefits that commercial insurance carriers could not offer nonprofit organizations. Over time, the company has grown to administer and serve 7 trusts, which provide a variety of programs to congregations, organizations, and dioceses. Mission:?Christian Brothers Services exemplifies the Lasallian tradition by understanding the needs of our members, protecting the human and financial resources of institutions and guiding member organizations in finding practical solutions to business needs.
