Non-Profit Organizations
You know your non-profit organization’s goals. We know risk. Let us reduce yours.


US-based non-profit organizations operate worldwide, responding to need on a global basis. Workers and volunteer offer aid following natural disasters, give food to the hungry, and provide medical, educational and economic assistance. As latest occurrences in regions areas torn by war and terror have demonstrated, humanitarian workers are becoming more and more vulnerable to violence. But even in less dangerous areas, US-based non-profits can leave themselves open to exposures. International liability insurance and travel assistance programs are a necessity for non-profit organizations whose employees and volunteers travel beyond US borders.

Situations like these happen every day. Is your organization prepared to handle the potential consequences of situations like those listed below? International insurance products designed to reduce the risks associated with these and other exposures can be tailored to fit your organization’s exclusive needs. Think: when the world is your workplace, lowering the risk associated with providing humanitarian aid and services is of utmost importance!
