Correct Envelopes for Year-end Contribution Statements

Post by gardenranch »

We are having trouble locating envelopes that will work with our year-end contribution statements. The envelopes we are currently using have the window in the wrong place, which means we have to fold the statements by hand to make them display the address through the window.

You didn't say which address, I'm assuming the contributor's address, not the church's address.

At my last church, we found a double window envelope that worked fine. but unfortunately, I don't have that info with me here.

However, what I did was print off a statement (my own of course) then used it to head to Staples and Office Depot to check the envelopes there. I believe I finally found what I needed in one of the stores' catalogs.

I wish I could be of more assistance.

Neil,
Thanks for the feedback. You were right that we were looking for a window to show the contributors' addresses. That looks like what we'll have to do, print out a statements and take it with us.

Hmmm, FWIW, we started printing statements in 1992 and this has never been an issue. We get the number 10 window envelopes. They work every time.

Yes, we've been using #10 envelopes (both double window and single window) for many years without problem. They are available at any office supply store.

FWIW ... the local stores didn't carry the double window envelope we needed, which is why we had to special order them.
