Founded in 2000, Alliance of Nonprofits for Insurance (ANI) provides liability insurance to 501(c)(3) nonprofits with locations outside California.
In 1999, a feasibility study, underwritten by the David & Lucile Packard Foundation, was completed to determine what it would take for a nationwide expansion of the concept demonstrated by Nonprofit Insurance Alliance of California (NIAC).
The results of that study led to Alliance of Nonprofits for Insurance (ANI) and its captive reinsurer, National Alliance of Nonprofits for Insurance (NANI). ANI, domiciled in Vermont, began writing policies outside California in 2001 as a Risk Retention Group.
