Mangold Insurance has been part of Burlington since 1933. Four generations later, we still believe a local agency owes something to the place that raised it — and we try to pay it back every year.
Our agents coach the teams, sit on the boards, shop at the same stores, and run into clients at the grocery store and the Friday night game. When you’ve been part of a community for more than 90 years, it stops being a market and starts being home.
That closeness shows up in the work. We answer the phone when something goes wrong, we know the roads that flood and the lakes that freeze, and we understand what a barn, a boat, or a body shop actually means to the family that owns it.
It also shows up off the clock — in the causes we back, the events we sponsor, and the time our team gives to the organizations that make small towns worth living in.
Being independent means we get to choose where our support goes — and we choose close to home.
We adopted Riverside Park in Burlington as part of our annual service commitment. Our team puts in real hours — adding mulch, planting flowers, cleaning the kayak launch, and power washing the fishing stations. It’s a small park, and it matters to the people who use it.
We sponsor the Lakeland Builders Association golf outing, support local 4-H programs, and invest in the organizations that keep small communities running — youth agriculture, youth athletics, and local trades.
Our team serves on local boards across Burlington — the Experience Burlington Chamber, the Building Burlington Leadership Council, Life Choices Burlington, and other organizations that shape what this town becomes next.
Our agents coach youth sports — baseball, basketball, soccer, and more — across Burlington and the surrounding communities. Showing up for kids isn’t a marketing strategy; it’s just who we are when we’re not at the office.
We celebrate together — team picnics at the parks we’ve adopted, holiday events, and community gatherings that keep us connected to each other and to Burlington.
Jim Mangold is a recipient of the Jack Ryan Community Service Award — industry recognition for outstanding commitment to community involvement. It reflects what we’ve always believed: doing right by your community is inseparable from doing right by your clients.
When a storm rolls through or a tree comes down, you’re not filing a ticket with a faceless call center. You’re calling people who live down the road and have a stake in your outcome. Our reputation is built one neighbor at a time — and that’s exactly how we like it.
It’s the difference between being a policy number and being a name we recognize. After 90 years, we’ve earned a lot of those names, and we don’t take a single one for granted.
Our roots are in Burlington, and our service areas stretch across southeastern and northern Wisconsin, northern Illinois, and eastern Iowa — lake country, farm country, and the Main Streets in between. We’re licensed across the United States, so when clients move, expand, or own property elsewhere, our coverage moves with them.
