Band 6+: You have seen an advertisement for a volunteer opportunity at a local charity that interests you. Write a letter to the charity expressing your interest. In your letter: - introduce yourself and explain why you are writing - describe your relevant skills and experience - ask any questions you have about the volunteer role.

Good mroning, afternoon or evening!

The reason why i wrote this letter is because I would like to show interest about the volunteering opportunity that was being advertised. It has caught my interest, and I would like to know more about the information, if that’s possible.

The meaning behind my interest in volunteering is that I always wished for an opportunity to make others feel glad because of my help. I view this advertising post to be my opportunity to achieve that. Other than that, I would love to help those in need since that is what makes us human.

I understand that there probably a lot of emails drowning your mail offering themselves for such opportunity. However, I have worked as a paramedic for 2 years in an retirement house, which means I have experience in taking care of patients and bedridden people. I hope that this extra bit of information will catch your attention, and soon will lead to me becoming one of the possible choices to become the volunteer.

Yet, I also have my own questions to ask. I hope you will consider them, and answer them accordingly. How many people will also be chosen as volunteers, and how much does the project last? It was just that I had a vacation trip planned at August, and I was hoping that this opportunity won’t overshadow our joy.

Those were allthe things I wanted to know and offer. Thank you in advance.

From Balym.
