Synagogues Insurance — FAQs

How do we insure Torah scrolls and other ritual objects?

These items typically need to be individually scheduled with appraised values, since a standard property limit rarely reflects their true replacement cost or religious significance.

Does insurance help with the cost of security improvements?

While insurance doesn't fund security upgrades directly, some carriers offer premium credits for cameras, guards, and access controls, and we make sure related liability exposures are properly covered.

Are b'nai mitzvah celebrations and weddings covered under our general policy?

Routine congregation-hosted events are usually covered, but large celebrations with outside caterers or vendors may need certificates of insurance or added event coverage, which we can help arrange.

Do we need separate coverage for our preschool or day school?

Congregation-run schools typically need coordinated coverage for educators legal liability, student accident, and abuse & molestation, layered on top of the synagogue's core policy.
