MarketingMatters — At a Glance: We Deliver Your Tax Dollars, We Don't Spend Them!

April 15 — Tax Day — is almost here. While you might not feel like celebrating this particular date on the calendar, we hope you will take some comfort in the fact that the Postal Service™ is here to deliver your tax dollars — not spend them.

Postal Service operations are financed solely by the sale of its products and services. The only government funds the Postal Service receives are reimbursements by Con­gress to provide free mail for the blind and to keep certain postage prices for nonprofit and other qualifying organiza­tions below cost.

So when you finish filling out your tax forms this year and make your payment to the United States Treasury, remember: The Postal Service is here to deliver your tax dollars, not spend them.

And if you’re fortunate enough to be owed a tax refund, the Postal Service can also deliver that to you — putting tax dollars into your pocket, not taking them out of it!
