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

Prepared to launch a donation campaign for your Miami Lakes non-profit organization … but uncertain where to begin? Maybe the staffer who oversaw the earlier outreach retired or left? Or, you’re just short on employees and long on work?

You need a turnkey mailing service that understands how direct mail for charities functions. Put differently, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the heavy lifting fund-raising can be mysterious, and ripe for errors. How do non-profit postage rates work? 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 substantially reduced non-profit postage rates.

You can glean serious savings on postage … as long as you adhere to 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. Stated otherwise, don’t try to jump onto the non-profit status of another Miami Lakes 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 be the difference in a decision returning in days, versus weeks.

Is your Miami Lakes organization eligible? Very likely, as long as your due diligence is complete. The classifications of organizations approved for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® prices are lengthy: philanthropic, religious, educational, veterans, scientific, labor, fraternal, political … the list goes on.

Got your non-profit authorization? Great. Let’s get to work. 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 greatest postage savings, and delivering 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 support certain causes. Polish 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 donation campaign mailers. We know the rules, the rates, and how to get your fund-raising outreach in the right hands.
