Subject: Nomination for Serving Citizens Award
Dear Madam,
I am writing to nominate three students of our residential complex for the prestigious Serving Citizens Award instituted by RWA. These three grade 10 students that I am nominating live in our apartment complex. Last week, they rescued and rehabilitated a few old beggars living in our neighbourhood. Their kind act not only made a difference in the lives of these poor beggars, but also inspired other children and adults of our locality to engage in similar acts of compassion.
Therefore, I would like to nominate their names for the 'Serving Citizens Award’ and believe that they are truly worthy of it... Please be kind enough to take this appeal forward. I will be highly obliged and grateful.
Thanking You
Yours sincerely,
Zac Skaria
