About Us

We believe life is better when it has a purpose.

For over a century, Thrivent has been helping people build their financial futures and live more generous lives. We started out back in 1902, providing much-needed insurance contracts to our Lutheran community. The Christian values that steered us then — generosity and appreciation for what's important in life — are the same values that compel us in 2020.

Today, we're a Fortune 500 company, offering a full range of expert financial solutions, including advice, investments, insurance, banking and generosity programs. We serve over 2 million clients, as well as the communities in which they live and work.

How We're Different

At Thrivent, we believe money is a tool, not a goal. Driven by a higher purpose at our core, we are committed to providing financial advice, investments, insurance, banking, and generosity programs to help people make the most of all they've been given.

At our heart, we are a membership-owned fraternal organization, as well as a holistic financial services organization, dedicated to serving the unique needs of our clients. We focus on their goals and priorities, guiding them towards financial choices that will help them live the life they want today - and tomorrow.

We're reaching more people.

We've always held the belief that humanity thrives when people make the most of all they've been given. To deliver on this, we are not only committed to our existing clients - we're opening our doors to new clients. And we're meeting their needs in more ways than ever before. Because when more people make the most of all they've been given, our impact amplifies.

We put our clients first

We start with you, and your needs. That's been our philosophy, and it continues today. As a membership-owned organization, we answer to our clients - never to shareholders on Wall Street. By operating this way, we build relationships based on transparency and trust.

Membership at Thrivent

We are a fraternal benefit society, which is a not-for-profit organization owned by its membership. Our goal is to provide mutual benefit to our clients and the communities where they live. We're a community of people looking out for people, creating impact in all we're a part of, and spreading generosity.

What is a fraternal organization?

To be a fraternal benefit society, there must be a common bond that unites members. For Thrivent, that bond is Christianity - embracing faith, finances and charitable giving. Fraternal benefit societies must also have local, member branches that carry out the organization's good works in local communities. For Thrivent, these branches are the Thrivent Member Network. Thrivent clients with memberships also have a voice in how our company is governed, by electing the national and Thrivent Member Network boards, and they have a responsibility to give back where they live, work and worship. Thrivent membership is empowering, as you help yourself and others achieve financial clarity, and live generous lives.
