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

Planning to start up a fund-raising campaign for your Granville charity … but unclear where to start? Maybe the professional who supervised the previous outreach retired or departed? Or, you’re just low on workers and long on work?

You need a turnkey mailing service that understands how direct mail for charities operates. Simply put, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the logistical limbo) for your Granville direct mail fund-raising.

Using direct mail for {non-profit fund-raising can be ambiguous, 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 sent as USPS Marketing Mail^®, by organizations authorized by the Postal Service™, at significantly reduced non-profit postage rates.

You can reap momentous savings on postage … as long as you adhere to the rules. Bresser’s Information Services understands them thoroughly, 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 qualify for USPS Marketing Mail^®.

Only materials of authorized organizations, registered as non-profits with USPS, can be mailed at non-profit rates. Put differently, don’t try to ride the non-profit status of another Granville 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 Granville organization eligible? Most likely, as long as your due diligence is complete. The categories of organizations approved for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® prices are many: philanthropic, religious, educational, veterans, scientific, labor, fraternal, political … the list goes on.
