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

Planning to launch a fund-raising campaign for your Whitefish Bay non-profit … but unclear where to start? Has the team member who oversaw the earlier outreach retired or exited? Or, you’re just low on help and long on tasks to be done?

You need a turnkey mailing service that comprehends how direct mail for non-profits operates. Simply put, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the logistical limbo) for your Whitefish Bay direct mail fund-raising.

Using direct mail for {non-profit fund-raising can be uncertain, and ripe for pitfalls. How do non-profit postage rates operate? Which types of organizations are eligible? 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 considerably reduced non-profit postage rates.

You can reap serious savings on postage … as long as you obey the rules. Bresser’s Information Services understands them completely, and is ready to help.

Remember, nothing that has to be sent via First Class Mail^® qualifies for non-profit rates. The rules are strict. 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 qualify 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 Whitefish Bay 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 ready to show proof 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.
