Fund-Raising for Santa Fe Springs Non-Profits? Our Mail House Delivers Turnkey Mailing Service for Your Donation Campaigns!

Seeking to initiate a donation effort for your Santa Fe Springs non-profit … but unsure where to start? Has the professional who ran the prior outreach retired or exited? Or, you’re just low on help and long on work?

You need a turnkey mailing service that knows how direct mail for charities operates. Simply put, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the heavy lifting fund-raising can be intimidating, and ripe for mistakes. How do non-profit postage rates function? Which types of operations are eligible? Can any materials be mailed, or only certain types?

First, a definition. Non-profit mail is printed material eligible to be mailed as USPS Marketing Mail^®, by organizations authorized by the Postal Service™, at substantially reduced non-profit postage rates.

You can glean sizable savings on postage … as long as you stick to the rules. Bresser’s Information Services knows them intimately, and is prepared to assist.

Remember, nothing that requires sending via First Class Mail^® qualifies for non-profit rates. The rules are strict. Unbendable. Don’t even try.

So, what can you send at non-profit rates? Self-mailers, letters, newsletters and booklets weighing less than 16 ounces can be eligible for USPS Marketing Mail^®.

Only materials of authorized organizations, registered as non-profits with USPS, can be mailed at non-profit rates. Stated otherwise, don’t try to piggyback on the non-profit status of another Santa Fe Springs organization. It won’t end well. Authorized organizations are barred from sharing their mailing privilege. Obtain your own.

How? Complete PS Form 3624, Application to Mail at Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® Prices. Be ready to show documentation that your organization is a legal non-profit. Fill out the form completely. Doing so can be the difference in a decision returning in days, versus weeks.

Is your Santa Fe Springs organization eligible? Very likely, as long as your due diligence is complete. The categories of organizations approved for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® costs are many: philanthropic, religious, educational, veterans, scientific, labor, fraternal, political … the list goes on.

Got your non-profit authorization? Great. Let’s get down to business. Bresser’s Information Services will mail on your organization’s behalf, using our mailing permit.

There’s a reason our name includes “services,” however. We don’t stop at preparing your mail for the largest postage savings, and delivering it at the post office.

We provide advice on designing your mail piece. Print your materials in full color. Populate and expand your mailing list, using recipients known to donate to certain causes. Clean up your list, deleting vacant and duplicate addresses. Find new addresses for recipients who have moved.

Since its founding in 1946, Bresser’s Information Services has printed, addressed and mailed millions of donation campaign mailers. We understand the regulations, the rates, and how to land your fund-raising outreach in the right hands.
