Western Fraternal Life Association was established in 1897 as a Czech fraternal benefit society, providing its members burial insurance, social and ethnic activities, and a means of preserving Czech heritage. Lodges were formed throughout the Midwest and members attended meetings and special events. Today the membership is open to those who are supportive of the purpose of the Association.

When an individual becomes a member of the Association, they are eligible for fraternal benefits. The Association offers its members a wide range of insurance and annuity products to meet the needs of a complex society. Some of the fraternal benefits the Association offers include Lodge Participation, Orphan's Income and Education Benefits, Emergency Medical Card, Child Identification Kit, Earth Care Projects, Volunteer Services, Matching Funds Program, the Fraternal Herald monthly magazine, National Charitable Projects, Contests For Adults, Youth Programs, and both Lodge and National Scholarships. New benefits and projects are continually being explored and developed, which will benefit members and their communities.
