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

Hoping to initiate a donation campaign for your Haverhill non-profit … but uncertain where to start? Perhaps the staffer who oversaw the previous outreach retired or departed? Or, you’re just low on workers and long on work?

You want a turnkey mailing service that comprehends how direct mail for non-profits functions. In other words, you need Bresser’s Information Services, a mail service provider (MSP) that does the charity fund-raising can be ambiguous, and ripe for pitfalls. How do non-profit postage rates operate? 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 considerably reduced non-profit postage rates.

You can realize momentous savings on postage … as long as you adhere to the rules. Bresser’s Information Services understands them inside and out, and is ready 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 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 Haverhill 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 ready to show proof 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 Haverhill organization eligible? Very likely, as long as your due diligence is complete. The classifications of organizations eligible for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail^® costs are many: philanthropic, religious, educational, veterans, scientific, labor, fraternal, political … the list goes on.
