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

Aiming to launch a fund-raising campaign for your Sandy Springs non-profit organization … but unclear where to start? Maybe the staffer who directed the prior outreach retired or departed? Or, you’re just low on help and long on work?

You need a turnkey mailing service that knows how direct mail for charities functions. In other words, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the charity fund-raising can be ambiguous, and ripe for errors. How do non-profit postage rates operate? Which types of organizations 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 tremendous savings on postage … as long as you obey the rules. Bresser’s Information Services understands them thoroughly, and is ready to help.

Remember, nothing that requires sending 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 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 utilize the non-profit status of another Sandy Springs organization. It won’t work. 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 prepared to show evidence that your organization is a legal non-profit. Fill out the form entirely. Doing so can be the difference in a decision returning in days, versus weeks.

Is your Sandy Springs organization eligible? Probably, as long as your due diligence is complete. The classifications of organizations eligible for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® costs are many: 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.

We provide advice on designing your mail piece. Print your materials in full color. Populate and expand your mailing list, using recipients known to donate to specific causes. Clean up your list, removing vacant and duplicate addresses. Find new addresses for recipients who have moved.

Since its founding in 1946, Bresser’s Information Services has printed, addressed and mailed millions of fund-raising pieces. We understand the rules, the rates, and how to get your fund-raising outreach in the right hands.
