Fraternalism is Our Difference!
Catholic Holy Family Society is deeply rooted in the word “fraternal” which means brotherhood and friendship. The Society is a fraternal benefit organization providing life insurance to Catholics and their families. Fraternal benefit societies operate with a blend of business and volunteerism. More than 10 million men, women and children belong to these not-for-profit fraternals which offer their members a chance to participate in fraternal programs and also provide for the protection needs of their members by offering life insurance.
The Passing Parade
The Passing Parade is the quarterly newsletter published by the Society. This publication is designed to keep our members up to date with what is happening with the Society while including other articles of interest for all to enjoy. Winners from our fraternal programs and contests are also listed in each issue. The Passing Parade has been a part of the Society for many years, providing our members with an informative newsletter that will continue to serve our growing fraternal family.

Volunteer Rewards Program
3 cash prizes of $150.00 each
This program recognizes members who have contributed their time, energy, and talents to their church and community. Members send in their entry by listing the volunteer activities they have participated in during the months specified in The Passing Parade. From those entries, three are chosen to receive a cash prize. This program is held four times a year.
“How Soon We Forget” Contest
$100 first prize

This fun contest gives our members a chance to identify movie stars of the past. From the number of correct entries received, three are chosen to receive a cash prize. This contest is held every three months and can be found in The Passing Parade.
Teacher Legacy Award
This program was established to recognize outstanding kindergarten through eighth grade Catholic educators. The Society first contacts the Superintendent of a Catholic diocese located in a state in which it operates. The Superintendent asks all principals in the diocese to recognize one teacher from their school to be nominated for this award. The home office then randomly chooses one teacher from these nominations to receive the award and represent all those in the diocese. The recipient is presented with an engraved school bell, a certificate, a gift card, and a check to be used for his/her classroom.
