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

Prepared to initiate a fund-raising effort for your Fox Point non-profit … but unsure where to start? Maybe the staffer who oversaw the prior outreach retired or departed? Or, you’re just short on employees and long on work?

You need a turnkey mailing service that grasps how direct mail for charities functions. Put differently, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the logistical limbo) for your Fox Point direct mail fund-raising.

Using direct mail for {non-profit fund-raising can be imposing, and ripe for mistakes. How do non-profit postage rates function? Which types of operations qualify? Can any materials be mailed, or only specific 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 considerably reduced non-profit postage rates.

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

Remember, nothing that has to be sent via First Class Mail^® qualifies for non-profit rates. The rules are well defined. 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 piggyback on the non-profit status of another Fox Point organization. It won’t fly. Authorized organizations are prohibited from sharing their mailing privilege. Obtain your own.
