Medical emergencies can happen at any time to anyone. Having the information you need at your fingertips, from emergency contact information to passwords and file access, can help ensure that if one of your employees experiences a health crisis, your organization is able to notify the people who need to know as soon as possible. A back-up for system for passwords can help operations to recover after an emergency event has occurred.

Disasters come in a variety of forms, from tornados and winter storms, to water main breaks and other miscellaneous building damage. Even minor incidents such as power outages and technical glitches can paralyze not-for-profit organizations if they are not adequately prepared. Business continuity plans help keep your not-for-profit organization afloat in the wake of a disruptive event. Disaster recovery and continuity plans can prevent unnecessary costs, protect valuable data and help your not-for-profit quickly respond to the crisis and resume its operations after the event has occurred. A comprehensive plan can also reduce your insurance costs. Insurance companies often reward organizations that take proactive steps to mitigate their risks with lower premiums.
