Testimonial
Engaging 400 high school students annually in leadership through global service to the Caribbean, Latin America and South America is thoroughly rewarding and wildly unpredictable. Having worked with Richard since 2004, we take pride that, "Sudden onset appendicitis," in Peru is the only claim we have filed. When we needed it, Patriot Group Travel Medical Insurance worked.
Amy Schroeder-Riggio, Executive Director, Builders Beyond Borders
We have brought more than 3000 people to Hispaniola since 2005, most of them high school age and all of them volunteers. We quickly learned that medical coverage for our first 113 person team ended at our Nation's border. The Patriot Group Travel insurance offered us, and the parents to whom we answer, the right peace of mind at the right price.
Christal Earle, Founder, Brave Souls Co-Founder, Live Different
The responsibility of leading a medical team of 230 people to a developing nation for 9 days could be overwhelming. For the last 11 years our focus to bring "Spiritual and Physical Help, Hope and Healing to Hurting Humanity" has been challenging. Richard has annually provided our Travel Medical Insurance for more than 10 years, and his attention to logistical detail is exceptional!
Rev. Kurt M. Holthus President, Hope International Ministries
This insurance was great...made the client happy...and so easy.
