You read in a newspaper that a company is going to renovate some school buildings in your local area that are in a poor condition. You would like to offer your help. Write a letter to the charity paying for the renovation.In your letter ● explain why you want to help with the renovations ● suggest what you can do to help ● say when you are available to start work

Dear Mr Walia, I read your article in an English newspaper regarding the initiative being taken by your organisation to renovate school buildings. I am writing
this
letter to inform you that I am willing to contribute to
this
work as I have been prolonging for a long time to devote my time to some social cause. Helping in
such
a noble task would provide immense satisfaction to my inner self and will
also
provide me with a competitive edge in my current company.
Firstly
, I can offer donations in the form of cash or cheque up to the extent my pocket allows.
Secondly
, I know a bunch of contractors who can help us and would quote a justified amount of money as compared to commercial builders. I am currently working as a professional in the corporate sector. My organisation is
also
supporting the employees who volunteer to work for communities.
Therefore
, I can apply once you agree to involve me in the renovation activity for school buildings and are willing to start to help immediately. Yours faithfully, Chetna
