BNI Glen-Ed

This week’s Featured Speaker is Joshua Buck with Shelter Insurance, our chapter’s trusted Life Insurance Agent!

Josh helps individuals and families protect what matters most by creating life insurance solutions designed around their needs, goals, and future. Join us this week to learn more about how the right coverage can provide lasting financial security and peace of mind.

This Wednesday, Sam Alender with Alender Insurance Agency will be stepping into the spotlight as this week’s featured speaker. Sam holds the Personal Lines Insurance seat in the group, helping individuals and families navigate the sometimes confusing world of insurance — where prices change, coverage options can feel overwhelming, and knowing what protection you actually need is not always simple.

Sam works to make personal insurance easier to understand while helping protect what matters most.

🌟 Featured Speaker Tomorrow 🌟

Tomorrow we’re excited to hear from Brenton Cook with Heartland Bank for his 10-minute presentation!

Every business needs more than just a bank account — it needs a trusted banking partner who understands growth, planning, protection, and day-to-day financial needs.

Whether your business is brand new, growing quickly, or well established, Brenton’s presentation will offer helpful insight into making your banking relationship work better for you.
