About GBU Life

GBU Financial Life (GBU) was founded on April 13, 1892, as a not-for-profit fraternal organization in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The purpose of formation was to provide financial security and social activities to its members. Today, GBU offers life insurance products, retirement savings programs and unique member benefits for all ages. GBU encourages and supports community and patriotic groups and events through GBU’s local district system. Charitable, recreational and social activities are offered for the entire family. Each year GBU ships care packages to overseas military personnel through its support program OPERATION REACH OUT. In recent years, GBU has actively supported many national charitable organizations: Habitat for Humanity, Ronald McDonald House Charities, American Cancer Society and the Red Cross, along with many local food banks and community projects.
