Horizon 401(k) Plan

The Horizon 401(k) Plan (Horizon) provides a retirement savings plan for employees of for-profit and nonprofit organizations that sponsor it. The plan is designed to provide participants with one piece of their overall retirement portfolio.

Horizon is an Internal Revenue Code section 401(k) plan in which you may make tax-deferred contributions through payroll deductions. Your contributions, combined with employer contributions on your behalf, comprise your retirement account balance. Your account accumulates earnings from investments among the General Board's selection of funds.

Who Is Eligible?

You are eligible to participate in Horizon if you are an employee of a Horizon plan sponsor and you meet the age and service requirements outlined in your plan sponsor's adoption agreement. Your plan sponsor will offer you an opportunity to enroll once you are eligible to participate.
