Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to you today because I have heard about the disagreement in which you are considering which sector of the local community can benefit more from having your funds.
Moreover
, I would like to point out some of the advantages of supporting the local athletic club. Notably, the local club can improve the overall health of the community and will reduce the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases within the local population.
However
, supporting musical festivals can
also
 be advantageous. To illustrate, the local community will appreciate having
such
 an exciting event, especially the young population and adolescents.
In addition
, it will entertain the families as well Personally, I am convinced that the best decision is to subsidize the nearby club because,
firstly
, it will promote good healthy habits for the juvenile.
Secondly
, it will remain permanently unlike the temporary concerts which are considered to be one-time events. I am looking forward to your reply. Yours faithfully, Youssef Abo-Dahab
