Follow These Simple Steps to Get Discount

1. Fax a copy of the following three items:
   
   
   1. proof of 501(c)3 non-profit status (confirmation letter from IRS)
      
      
   2. your EIN (employer identification number from IRS)**,
      
      
   3. a brief description or mission statement, typed on your organization letterhead as to what your organization focus is.
      
      NOTE: Do not send a flier, or magazine article. Use your letterhead/stationary and provide this information as requested above. Please be courteous and fax us the requested information about your organization on your letterhead (your stationary, showing organization name, logo, etc.) so that we have a sense of what you do and to help determine if your organization meets our requirements for this discount program. We've had some folks who were lazy (and rude in some cases) and wouldn't send us this info, and so we had to decline giving them a discount. Remember, we're offering this as a courtesy and we are under no obligation to provide you a discount — if you're lazy or rude about this procedure, we will not be able to provide you with the discount (in simpler terms, the idea here is to help you, but if you make more work or stress for us that defeats the purpose). Thank you for your consideration.
   
   Fax this information to us at 509-355-3090, and also send an e-mail to support@send2press.com, indicating you've sent the fax. We will send you a confirmation of receipt by e-mail. Your organization must also appear in the IRS website non-profit/charity search engine so that we can verify your organization's non-profit status.
   
   **EIN NOTE: if you don't have the EIN letter from the IRS, include this number (clearly identifed) on your letterhead with "mission statement" letter.
   
   
   
2. We will review your information within 24-48 hours (during normal business hours), and then when approved we will e-mail you a special discount code.
   
   
3. To order, and receive the discount, simply go to our online order system, and then during checkout enter your unique ID code in the "coupon code" box. 15% will be automatically deducted from your order total. (See important exceptions and limitations, below.)
   
   
4. After "checkout" be sure to use the right news information form to submit your news release. The news information form is required as it includes your project contact info, email address to send any included reports to (depending on plan level), desired distribution date/time, and allows one of our editors to review your release for content. We do not accept news releases by fax, mail, or other non-electronic medium. You may attach a copy of the release in MS Word (.doc or .rtf) format on page two of the news information form (after checkout).
   
   IMPORTANT! You must use the name of your organization in the headline and/or first paragraph of the press release for "attribution," and you must indicate in the release that your organization is a 501(c) non-profit. Be aware each news distribution plan has a base word count length limit (length of release in words).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS NON-PROFIT PROGRAM

Effective Date
The effective date of this non-profit discount program is November 15, 2004, and supercedes any and all prior non-profit discount programs offered by Neotrope/Send2Press.

Payment Methods
All non-profit orders must be placed online using a major credit card. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Amex/OPEN, and Discover/Novus. We do not accept open-account billing, purchase orders, fax orders, phone orders, checks or money orders for this discount program.

Important Note About Billing
If you order a plan without using the discount code, we can only "void" the order on request prior to the order clearing the payment system (5pm ET each day), and if you re-order the correct plan first. No credits will be issued if you fail to use the coupon code during checkout, and the order has cleared the banking system at day's end. The purpose of this discount plan is to provide a courtesy to nonprofit organizations, not to create extra work for us. Remember that we're offering this discount because we believe in supporting worthwhile causes and giving back to our communities, but we're under no obligation whatsoever to provide any discount to anybody. Please be courteous and read through our service information prior to contacting us with questions or concerns.

501(c) Information
Please note we cannot assist you with explanations of how to obtain 501(c) status. Contact your tax preparer, accountant, or the IRS for more information about 501(c) status requirements and applications. You can find additional information on the IRS.gov website by clicking here (opens new browser window). Unless your organization is actively involved in helping to better a community or people in general, we will not approve your participation in this plan.

Not a 501(c) Organization?
As the IRS has various sub-categories and a wide variety of non-profit designations, your organization is eligible if it has a different category number, as long as you meet all other requirements above, including being listed in the IRS search directory for non-profit/charity organizations. Unless your organization is actively involved in helping to better a community or people in general, we will not approve your participation in this plan.

"Non-profit" Organization Outside the U.S.
If you're a non-profit (or not-for-profit) organization located outside the U.S., you may not use this program unless you have nexus in the U.S. and a valid U.S. tax ID / EIN and meet all of the above requirements. Any international non-profit with a location in the U.S. will meet the above requirements. This program is intended to benefit U.S. organizations that help U.S. citizens in some way.
