Ready to launch a fund-raising campaign for your Broward County non-profit organization … but uncertain where to start? Perhaps the team member who oversaw the last outreach retired or exited? Or, you’re just low on employees and long on tasks to be done?

You want a turnkey mailing service that knows how direct mail for charities works. In other words, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the logistical limbo) for your Broward County direct mail fund-raising.

Using direct mail for {non-profit 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 specific 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 serious savings on postage … as long as you obey the rules. Bresser’s Information Services knows them inside and out, and is prepared to assist.

Remember, nothing that requires sending via First Class Mail^® is eligible for non-profit rates. The rules are strict. 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 be eligible 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 utilize the non-profit status of another Broward County organization. It won’t fly. Authorized organizations are barred from sharing their mailing privilege. Apply for your own.
