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

Prepared to fire up a donation campaign for your Hales Corners charity … but not sure where to start? Perhaps the professional who supervised the prior 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 charities works. Put differently, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the logistical limbo) for your Hales Corners direct mail fund-raising.

Using direct mail for {non-profit fund-raising can be imposing, and ripe for slip-ups. How do non-profit postage rates work? Which types of operations qualify? Can any materials be mailed, or only specific 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 substantially reduced non-profit postage rates.

You can reap serious savings on postage … as long as you adhere to the rules. Bresser’s Information Services understands them inside and out, and is prepared to help.

Remember, nothing that has to be sent via First Class Mail^® is eligible for non-profit rates. The rules are clearly laid out. Unbendable. Don’t even try.

So, what can you send 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 ride the non-profit status of another Hales Corners organization. It won’t end well. Authorized organizations are prohibited 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.
