Band 5+: You live in an English speaking country and you want to do some voluntary, unpaid work in a developing country. Write a letter to a company called Cultural Expeditions, which organizes such trips. In your letter: Explain why you want to do the voluntary work. State what your skills and experience are. Indicate where you would like to volunteer and for how long.

Dear Sir,

I am writing to you because my friend provided me with some information about your company, namely The Cultural Expeditions, which offers voluntary trips to different economically developing countries.

My person is from a very wealthy family and everything has been served in front of me, on the gold plate, the whole of my life. Therefore, I would like to do something, that should help a community to grow for free. The volunteering work can help grow my personality and satisfy my feelings, as well as contribute to the sustainability of your company on the market.

My managing skills and financial education should help poor countries to develop and expand new projects, which will earn some capital and increase independence from supported nations. Ultimately, you can use my person for every target, either schooling, nursing assistance, or serving food. If you have some special needs, do not hesitate to contact me and I will do everything to prepare myself for the best volunteer, how you have ever had.

My schedule is open for you, therefore I am available throughout the whole of next year. Thus I can start after the New Year for one year. As I mentioned above, during a period, when I will start I can prepare myself for your special mission.

Thank you very much for your consideration.

Yours faithfully,

Nicol
