University of California, Berkeley Alumni Association Partners with Liberty Mutual to Save Graduates Money on Auto, Home Insurance
A diploma from the University of California, Berkeley has afforded graduates many benefits, including one that might not instantly come to mind for many - significant savings on auto and home insurance.
The California Alumni Association (CAA) recently launched an affinity program with the nation’s eighth-largest auto and home insurer that makes more than 90,000 members of CAA, as well as other Cal alums, instantly eligible to receive an additional discount - up to 20 percent on auto and 5 percent on homeowners insurance(a).
Berkeley is the second University of California alumni association to partner with Liberty Mutual, joining the University of California, Davis, which began offering the Group Savings Plus(R) program to alumni in January 2004.
“We select our partners with a great deal of care,” says Randy Parent, California Alumni Association Executive Director. “Our goal is to provide our members with the very best auto and home insurance products at the best possible price. Liberty Mutual beat their competitors and our expectations hands-down. And on top of it, they have an unmatched reputation for service and customer care.”
In addition to the premium discounts, the California Alumni Association/Liberty Mutual program offers 24-hour claims reporting, 12-month guaranteed rates, the convenience of premium payment through direct-billing or automatic checking account deduction, and a dedicated customer phone number with extended sales and service hours.
“More than 330 alumni associations have recognized that discounted auto and home insurance is a valuable addition to their member benefits, and we welcome the graduates of the University of California, Berkeley into our Group Savings Plus(R) program,” said Anne Herbster, Liberty Mutual vice president and manager, Affinity Marketing.
