Support For The Long-Term
Jacob is happiest when serving others. He works at a nonprofit, counseling low-income kids in his community and can’t imagine doing anything else. When he graduated, Jacob had $56,000 in student loan debt from his ministry degree. His position paid just $25,000 a year, and he received $272 a month from Student Loan Insurance. As his income increased over time, the help he received decreased. While his income is now too high to qualify for help, he has received a total of $19,815 over the last 10 years. Without Student Loan Insurance, Jacob’s financial constraints would have prevented him from following his calling for so many years.
