Using direct mail for {non-profit fund-raising can be ambiguous, and ripe for errors. How do non-profit postage rates function? Which types of organizations qualify? Can any materials be mailed, or only specific types?

You can realize sizable savings on postage … as long as you obey the rules. Bresser’s Information Services understands them inside and out, and is ready 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 classify 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 piggyback on the non-profit status of another West Milwaukee organization. It won’t work. Authorized organizations are barred from sharing their mailing privilege. Get your own.
