Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m a Grade 8 student from XX middle school. I would like to volunteer in an old people’s home.
I am good at cleaning the house and I am also interested in cooking. What’s more, I am strong in communicating with others. Therefore, I can do a lot for the old people. Firstly, I can help the old people to do some cleaning. Secondly, I can cook delicious food for them. Finally, I can talk with them when they feel lonely and unhappy. I believe I am good at this job.
I want to help out as a volunteer in an old people’s home because it makes me do what I love to do and help others at the same time
As for the working time, I am free to help on Saturdays.
From the bottom of my heart, I want to get this job. I hope you can offer me the chance.
Yours truly,
