Non-profit Postage (USA)
Posted: Sat May 09, 2015 11:42 am
Does the Church have a non-profit postage permit that would make Wards eligible to send out mail at a discounted rate? How would I go about getting that set up for my Ward?
I have noticed that other non-profit organization have a little stamp that says non-profit. I have looked into it a bit on the US Postal Service's website, but it was mostly talking about organizations that solicit donations through the mail or who send out a newsletter to their members. The flow chart said that if it did not contain a product or an advertisement then it could be eligible for the non-profit rate.
I was wondering because we mail out checks to pay bills (e.g. fast-offering recipients, groceries stores where we have an account, etc.) and sometimes to forward certificates or other documents to members who have moved out. Also sometimes we send out announcements.
