Fund-Raising for Broward County Charities? Our Mail House Delivers Turnkey Mailing Service for Your Donation Campaigns!

Seeking to launch a fund-raising campaign for your Broward County non-profit … but not sure where to start? Maybe the staffer who ran the previous outreach retired or exited? Or, you’re just low on employees and long on tasks to be done?

 

You need a turnkey mailing service that understands how direct mail for non-profits functions. Simply put, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the charity fund-raising can be imposing, and ripe for pitfalls. How do non-profit postage rates work? Which types of organizations qualify? Can any materials be mailed, or only certain types?

 

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

 

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

 

Remember, nothing that requires sending via First Class Mail® is eligible for non-profit rates. The rules are clearly laid out. 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 qualify 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 jump onto the non-profit status of another Broward County organization. It won’t work. Authorized organizations are barred from sharing their mailing privilege. Get your own.

 

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

 

Is your Broward County organization eligible? Most likely, as long as your due diligence is complete. The classifications of organizations eligible for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail® costs are lengthy: 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,” though. We don’t stop at readying your mail for the largest postage savings, and dropping 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 give 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 fund-raising mailers. We understand the regulations, the rates, and how to get your fund-raising outreach in the right hands.
