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

Aiming to start up a fund-raising effort for your Kingswood non-profit organization … but not sure where to begin? Perhaps the team member who ran the prior outreach retired or left? Or, you’re just low on help and long on tasks to be done?

You want a turnkey mailing service that knows how direct mail for charities works. Simply put, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the logistical limbo) for your Kingswood direct mail fund-raising.

Using direct mail for {non-profit fund-raising can be imposing, and ripe for mistakes. How do non-profit postage rates work? Which types of organizations qualify? 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 reap sizable savings on postage … as long as you stick 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^® qualifies 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. Stated otherwise, don’t try to utilize the non-profit status of another Kingswood organization. It won’t end well. Authorized organizations are barred from sharing their mailing privilege. Get 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 Kingswood organization eligible? Most likely, as long as your due diligence is complete.
