It's worth finding out
Saving on postage costs for Nonprofit USPS Marketing Mail is a valuable privilege. For example: sending 5,000 letters via the Nonprofit rate would save roughly $1500 compared to First-Class Mail. Sending Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) can save you even more.
USPS requirements are complicated; at minimum they require:
- Your organization must qualify with the United States Postal Service (USPS) as a nonprofit (IRS designated nonprofits do not always qualify)
- You must mail at least 200 mailpieces at once
- Mail content must meet USPS Marketing Mail requirements (noncommercial content)
- You are mailing within the United States or its territories (international mail is not eligible)
Organizations that typically qualify include: agricultural, educational, fraternal, labor, philanthropic, religious, scientific, veterans, and some political committees (individuals do not).
Some organizations that appear to fall within those categories may still fail to qualify under USPS rules--for example, business leagues, chambers of commerce, social and hobby clubs, and certain political organizations are usually not eligible.
