Oregon Non-Profit Insurance coverage

Non-Profit InsuranceNon-Profit Insurance

Nonprofit organizations in Oregon provide essential services that improve communities and increase future opportunities. These organizations need special protection to ensure they can continue to carry out their missions. Nonprofit insurance from RKI is designed to keep organizations operational through many potential challenges.

Commercial Insurance Coverage for Nonprofit Organizations

The state of Oregon requires nonprofit organizations to carry certain coverages to maintain their registration.

  • Workers compensation
  • Unemployment insurance
  • Any insurance specific to the organization's line of business

These commercial policies protect the workers that make nonprofit organizations successful. In addition to these requirements, nonprofits benefit from other commercial policies.

  • Auto
  • General liability
  • Property
  • Directors and Officers
  • Professional liability

Commercial business policies protect the people, places, and tools that nonprofits use to deliver their goods and services. Organizations that produce, distribute, or sell products may also need product liability coverage. This policy helps pay for legal liabilities related to damage caused by your products.

These policies aren't necessary for every organization. Contact our agents at RKI for a personalized assessment of your coverage needs.

Nonprofit Liability Coverage

In addition to these policies, nonprofits require unique insurance coverage to address their particular concerns.

Social-based organizations are at risk for lawsuits related to their interactions in the broader community. Activities that fall outside of the realm of regular business can be challenging to cover under traditional policies.

A nonprofit liability policy protects community organizations from lawsuits against the organization. This can include slander, physical or mental harm, or loss of property or material gain due to the activities of the agency.

The right combination of insurance policies protects nonprofits from events that could potentially end their efforts to support positive growth in their communities. How can we help you protect your Oregon nonprofit? Contact the agents at RKI for more information on insurance for your nonprofit organization.

RKI Referral

Referrals are the best form of advertising out there, and we love 'em! But its not fair that newspapers, radio stations, and even Facebook gets paid for their advertising but you don't! To fix that, RKI has started its own referral program to reward our "grassroot" marketers out there. If you send a friend to RKI to get a quote for home, auto, or liability insurance, we will send you $5 cash to go spend how you please. So send a friend or twelve to RKI for a quote for instant cash and chances to get some cash! *Excludes Health Insurance.*

We are looking to further improve our referral program, so feel free to suggest something and keep checking back to see any changes!
