We Get It
Small Team. Big Mission. Every Dollar Counts.
Most nonprofit staff are running development, communications, and half a dozen other jobs at once. Mail still has to go out — the annual appeal, the gala invitations, the thank-you letters — but there’s rarely time to manage three vendors to make it happen. Mailstar exists so that’s one job you can hand off completely.

Nonprofit Direct Mail — Frequently Asked Questions
Does Mailstar work with small nonprofits, or only large organizations?
Both. Mailstar works with organizations of every size, from a small local nonprofit mailing a few hundred appeal letters to larger organizations running multi-thousand-piece annual campaigns.
Can you personalize each appeal letter with a donor's giving history?
Yes. Variable data printing lets us personalize donor name, past giving, and suggested ask amount for every letter in a run, so lapsed donors, monthly givers, and major donors can each get a message suited to them.
How does Mailstar protect our donor data?
Donor files are transferred securely, access is limited to the team working your job, and files aren’t retained beyond what your project needs.
Does Mailstar provide documentation for board or grant reporting?
Yes. Quotes and invoices are itemized by print, personalization, and postage so development staff have clear documentation for board reports and grant compliance.
Does Mailstar work with nonprofits outside New York?
Yes. Mailstar is based in Rochester, New York, and serves nonprofit clients nationwide — donor files transfer digitally and mail enters the same USPS network regardless of where your organization or donors are located.
