Think of the cause you are most passionate about. Now, you can do more to support it at no cost to you.
With Insuring A Better World Fund, all you have to do is choose. Sounds easy, right?
There is nearly $20 trillion of life insurance in force in the United States, and 88% of policies will terminate without providing death benefits to policy owners or charity. Each year, more than $100 billion in life insurance held by seniors is forfeited or liquidated for a fraction of the policies’ ultimate value when their owners decide to stop paying premium. We know that this loss can be repurposed to better the world.
Insuring A Better World Fund was created to save lapsing policies from waste and drive their value to charity. By donating an unwanted life insurance policy, donors can make legacy-sized gifts to their favorite charity with a simple, no cost process. We pay all premium and other costs for donated policies to relieve donors and their selected charities from the financial burden of maintaining the policy.
This innovative program aggregates hundreds of individually donated life insurance policies to establish a vast new source of predictable cash flow to charities for decades to come. The best part is that neither you, nor the charities, have any obligation to pay the premium or any other cost.
We can change that!
Together, we will transform lapsing policies into charitable gifts.
Welcome to the Insuring A Better World Fund, thank you for your interest. Please browse through our website and learn about the positive change we can achieve. Together we can make a significant difference in combating disease, poverty and addiction and providing opportunities for education, religious organizations and community outreach. Best of all there is no cost to our donors or our charities.
I have dedicated my career to the life insurance industry and my personal life to the pursuit of charitable causes. The opportunity is enormous. The mission is critical. The time to act is now. We need your help and together we can ensure a better world for us all.

David’s life is fueled by the words of the sages “If I am not for myself, who is for me? If I am only for myself, what am I? If not now, when?” His devotion to philanthropy led to his collaboration with longtime friend, Robert Stuchiner, to form the Insuring A Better World Fund, an opportunity for all financial professionals to help do our part to give back to charity. The Insuring A Better World Fund is a 501(c)(3) public charity whose mission is to transform life insurance into charitable ideals. The fund has generated contributions to tens of charitable organizations providing scholarships, legal aid to the needy, money to combat disease, find cures and much more.
Mr. Simon is the creator of the Arbitrage Life Payments System, the nation’s first of the current day life insurance premium finance payment plans. In 1988, STP Enterprises, Inc., the company he co-owns with his wife Pam, became the first agency in the nation to utilize premium finance in the sale of individual life insurance. STP has sold over 1500 policies financed through the ALPS, totaling billions of dollars of death benefit and nearly a billion dollars of premium.
STP has financed and re-financed billions of dollars of loans. In 1994, David was the first to securitize life insurance policies with Continental Bank, Fuji Bank and Life Investors Insurance Company. STP has administered its ALPS program flawlessly for over 30 years on behalf of major insurance carriers, including AEGON, Lincoln Benefit Life, American National, etc. and many of the nation’s largest banks, including Citibank, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, etc.
David has lectured for decades at insurance company seminars as well as life insurance professional and bank gatherings across the United States. David is an attorney who began his career in litigation.
