Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to express my interest in Volunteer work that was published in Australia times a week ago. The information included organising an event for charity.
Let me take you through why I am keen on
this
event. Well, ever since childhood I have seen my parents involved in contributing to the organisation that supports homeless children. Every month they would donate clothes or even prepare home-cooked meals for the kids. Moreover
, during school days there was an NGO that provided free education to the less fortunate. Therefore
, all these experiences helped me to understand the importance of empathy.
As far as my past work experience is concerned, you would be delighted to know that I have worked a
year with a fundraising company that supports child abuse and animals. Change preposition
for a
Furthermore
, I have even been an organiser for a charity event that took place within my university. As a result
, won the first
prize as a young achiever.
For your consideration and approval, I would like to elicit two suggestions: Firstly
, I can be a good candidate for handling team and floor placements as I do hold expertise within these areas. Secondly
, I think I might be able to help you with banner placements as I hold experience as a graphic designer.
Therefore
, Kindly let me know if my expertise interests you. In case your need any further
details, Please feel free to reach out.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Yours sincerely,
