Dear [Colleague’s Name],

I hope you are doing well. I am writing to let you know that unfortunately, I will not be able to organize the farewell party as I had promised earlier.

When I first volunteered, I truly wanted to do something meaningful to show our appreciation for your time and contributions to the company. I thought it would be a great opportunity for everyone to come together and say goodbye properly.

However, due to some unforeseen circumstances, including an unexpected increase in my workload and personal commitments that require my immediate attention, I am no longer able to dedicate enough time to organize the event properly. I feel it would be unfair to continue if I cannot do it well.

That said, I would still love to support the farewell in another way. I am happy to help with planning ideas, contribute financially, or assist whoever takes over the organization. Please let me know how I can help.

I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and hope you understand my situation. I wish you all the best in your next chapter.

Kind regards,

Hải
