Fund-Raising for Queen Anne Charities? Our Mail House Delivers Turnkey Mailing Service for Your Donation Campaigns!

Planning to fire up a fund-raising campaign for your Queen Anne charity … but unclear where to begin? Perhaps the staffer who directed the last outreach retired or departed? Or, you’re just short on help and long on tasks to be done?

You need a turnkey mailing service that comprehends how direct mail for non-profits functions. In other words, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the logistical limbo) for your Queen Anne direct mail fund-raising.

Using direct mail for {non-profit fund-raising can be mysterious, and ripe for errors. How do non-profit postage rates function? 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 glean sizable savings on postage … as long as you adhere to the rules. Bresser’s Information Services understands them intimately, and is prepared to assist.

Remember, nothing that has to be sent 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 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 piggyback on the non-profit status of another Queen Anne organization. It won’t fly. Authorized organizations are prohibited 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 entirely. Doing so can make the difference in a decision returning in days, versus weeks.
