Direct Mail Program

The National Council’s direct mail program is available to all Society of St. Vincent de Paul Top Councils. When Top Councils opt in, they get exclusive access to many benefits, including:

  • The National Council absorbs all additional costs no matter how much revenue comes in.
  • Marketing and branding advantages — such as additional thrift store donations, larger amount of money in the collection basket or poor box — may result from the mailings.
  • Long-term, strategic outreach at no cost. Traditionally, it can take three to five years for a direct mail campaign to produce income, so we get it off the ground until it produces.

If you are interested in joining the national direct mail program, please contact Emily Joellenbeck at ejoellenbeck@svdpusa.org or (314) 576-3993 Ext. 218
