At Home Here
Wacoans had long since recovered
from the devastating tornado that
cut through the heart of their city.
Downtown had been rebuilt and was
the shopping mecca for Central
Texas. Madison Clement was mayor
and Baylor University was still
waiting for its taste of the Cotton
Bowl, a dream not realized in 30
years, and not to be realized for yet
another 20.
We came from Indianapolis and
settled into the Citizens Bank
building. Back then we employed 75
people and had a sales force of 350.
Our total assets were $3 million.
As a nationwide company and as
one of America’s fastest growing in-
surers, we’re proud to be a part of
Waco’s growth story. We’ve watched
her population increase steadily.
We’ve seen businesses—both old and
new alike—strengthen her economy.
And we’ve watched thousands of
other people discover what Wacoans
have known all along: this is a nice
place to live.
We couldn’t agree more. That’s
why 21 years ago we decided the best
place for us to call home was right
here. In Waco.
When we moved here in 1959,
meetings and we even provide other
companies some stiff competition
from our men’s and women’s softball
teams.
Yes, we’ve both come a long way,
Waco and American Income. The
city is boasting new industry, more
shopping facilities, new schools, all
offering an even better quality of
life. And we’re now a national com-
pany serving some one million
policyholders. Our agency offices
span from San Diego to Boston,
from Minneapolis to Beaumont.
We’re at work everywhere. But
we’re at home. Right here in Waco.
Today American Income offers
some 300 jobs, has a sales force of
over 1,000 and last year our assets
tipped $175 million. We add over $4
million a year in new income to
Waco’s economy. We aid area
youths through scholarships and we
brighten children’s lives every
Christmas from our “Dress-a-Doll”
and Toys for Boys drive.
We are active partners in Waco’s
charities and educational drives. The
company and its employees join
hands in volunteer efforts with
community services such as United
Way. Our offices are used for civic
