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

Aiming to fire up a fund-raising campaign for your Lighthouse Point non-profit … but unsure where to begin? Has the person who directed the prior outreach retired or left? Or, you’re just short on help and long on tasks to be done?

You need a turnkey mailing service that knows how direct mail for charities operates. In other words, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the charity fund-raising can be mysterious, and ripe for slip-ups. How do non-profit postage rates function? Which types of operations qualify? 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 considerably reduced non-profit postage rates.

You can reap sizable savings on postage … as long as you follow the rules. Bresser’s Information Services knows them thoroughly, and is ready to assist.

Remember, nothing that has to be sent via First Class Mail^® is eligible 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 be eligible 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 ride the non-profit status of another Lighthouse Point organization. It won’t work. Authorized organizations are barred from sharing their mailing privilege. Obtain your own.

How? Complete PS Form 3624, Application to Mail at Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® Prices. Be prepared 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 Lighthouse Point 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,” however. We don’t stop at readying your mail for the largest postage savings, and dropping it at the post office.
