You were absent from an important event held by the company you work for. Write a letter to your manager
Dear Mr. Shah,
I hope
this
letter finds you in good health. I am writing this
letter to apologise for not being able to attend the Charity event held by our organization yesterday. I understand that this
event is very important for our company’s responsibility towards society, but due to
an important family function, I couldn’t attend.
As you know, my cousin just returned from Canada two weeks ago, and he took a vacation for the whole month for his marriage. However
, due to
some emergency at his workplace, he is required to go back to Canada in two weeks. As a result
, his parents rescheduled the marriage to yesterday. Since I am his only uncle, my presence is of utmost importance at the wedding.
I hope you will understand that it was an exceptional situation. Additionally
, I am aware that my presentation was very significant in terms of getting more donors. Therefore
, I have already emailed it to all the potential donors. This
way, I can accomplish my targets within the next couple of weeks. I hope it will help.
Yours sincerely,
