Fund-Raising for Greenfield Non-Profit Organizations? Our Mail House Delivers Turnkey Mailing Service for Your Donation Campaigns!

Prepared to launch a donation effort for your Greenfield charity … but not sure where to start? Perhaps the person who oversaw the previous outreach retired or exited? Or, you’re just short on staff and long on tasks to be done?

You need a turnkey mailing service that grasps how direct mail for non-profits works. Put differently, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the heavy lifting fund-raising can be mysterious, and ripe for pitfalls. How do non-profit postage rates operate? Which types of organizations 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 significantly reduced non-profit postage rates.

You can glean momentous savings on postage … as long as you obey the rules. Bresser’s Information Services knows them inside and out, 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 mail at non-profit rates? Self-mailers, letters, newsletters and booklets weighing less than 16 ounces can classify 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 utilize the non-profit status of another Greenfield organization. It won’t fly. Authorized organizations are barred from sharing their mailing privilege. Apply for 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 make the difference in a decision returning in days, versus weeks.

Is your Greenfield organization eligible? Probably, as long as your due diligence is complete. The categories of organizations eligible for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® rates are lengthy: philanthropic, religious, educational, veterans, scientific, labor, fraternal, political … the list goes on.

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