  • 1.  Liability insurance for all volunteer foster-based orgs only?

    Posted 06-10-2024 06:32 AM

    Good morning, all

    A question for all-volunteer, foster home based organizations only, please - who writes your liability insurance policy?  We've found a number that will write for those organizations with a  physical structure, but few that will write for a foster home based only organization.  

    Thanks so much!

    Thanks to this forum, we finally were able to find a relatively affordable policy through AWOIP (Animal Welfare organization insurance program). We are an all volunteer dog rescue with fosters. After months of looking at many options, we were grateful to find this. Here is the information for our contact:

    It took months to get this in place until we found this organization, which took only a couple of weeks. And they were very thorough.
