Welcome

The Canadian Fraternal Association strengthens Fraternal Benefit Societies in Canada by helping them succeed through delivery of mutually supportive systems and services, and by helping to ensure fraternal ideals and values are recognized, understood and embraced by everyone who can affect our member's future.

For more than a century, the Canadian Fraternal Association/L’Association Fraternelle Canadienne (CFA-AFC) has been promoting the welfare of fraternal benefit societies in Canada.

As the voice of fraternal organizations with approximately 400,000 Canadian members, the CFA-AFC has kept fraternal interests and concerns before legislators and regulators at all levels of government.

This requires a continuing effort, as fraternal societies are unique. They are organizations operated for the benefit of their members and the communities they serve. Services offered include financial products and services such as insurance, savings and investment vehicles as well as educational programs, volunteer services and social activities.

Their unique fraternal structure enables member societies to make a "value added" contribution to their members and their beneficiaries and to the communities in which they operate.
