Build a graduation announcement address list without chasing everyone
Graduation announcement list
Graduation announcements usually involve more people than the everyday contact list: relatives, family friends, teachers, coaches, mentors, and neighbors. A Mailbook request link helps collect those mailing addresses in one place.
This is a narrow, practical page for the address-list part of graduation mail. Once the addresses are saved, you can decide what to send and whether one message should go to multiple recipients.
List building
Address groups to check
A useful graduation list is usually organized by relationship, not alphabetically at first.
- • immediate family
- • extended family
- • teachers and mentors
- • coaches or club leaders
- • family friends and neighbors
- • party guests and gift senders

Copy-paste graduation address requests
- • We are putting together a graduation announcement list. Could you add the best mailing address here?
- • Graduation season is coming up and we are updating addresses for announcements. Please add yours when you have a minute.
- • We would love to send you a graduation announcement. Could you share the mailing address we should use?
Before you continue
- • Build the list by group: family, family friends, teachers, coaches, mentors, and close neighbors.
- • Ask for household addresses early if announcements or thank-yous need to arrive around ceremony season.
- • Use one request link so parents, students, and relatives are not copying addresses across chats.
- • Keep the saved list for thank-you notes after gifts or graduation parties.

Frequently asked questions
Who should be on a graduation announcement address list?
Start with close family, extended family, family friends, teachers, coaches, mentors, neighbors, and anyone who would appreciate a physical announcement.
Can I use the list for thank-you notes too?
Yes. You can collect the address list first, then reuse saved contacts for announcements or thank-you notes later.
Is this better than a spreadsheet?
A spreadsheet is fine for sorting a complete list. A request link is better when you need people to submit or update their own addresses.
How do I keep address collection from feeling awkward?
Use a short explanation, share the request only with the people you actually need, and review new submissions before saving them. Your contacts do not need a PieterPost account to submit their address.
