Fund-Raising for Maple Valley Heights Non-Profit Organizations? Our Mail House Delivers Turnkey Mailing Service for Your Donation Campaigns!

Prepared to launch a donation campaign for your Maple Valley Heights non-profit … but uncertain where to begin? Has the staffer who supervised the previous outreach retired or left? Or, you’re just short on staff and long on work?

You need a turnkey mailing service that grasps how direct mail for charities operates. Put differently, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the hard work fund-raising can be mysterious, and ripe for pitfalls. How do non-profit postage rates function? Which types of operations 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 significantly reduced non-profit postage rates.

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

Remember, nothing that requires sending via First Class Mail^® qualifies for non-profit rates. The rules are well defined. 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 Maple Valley Heights organization. It won’t work. 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 entirely. Doing so can make the difference in a decision returning in days, versus weeks.

Is your Maple Valley Heights organization eligible? Very likely, as long as your due diligence is complete. The categories of organizations eligible for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® rates are lengthy: 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 preparing 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 support certain causes. Clean up your list, deleting 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 pieces. We understand the regulations, the rates, and how to get your fund-raising outreach in the right hands.
