Dear Sir or Madam,
I saw your advertisement, and I’m writing to sign up as a volunteer. I would like to be a friend to the international students.
I want to be a volunteer because making a difference in someone’s life brings me happiness. I have many skills and qualities. First, I’m warm-hearted and always willing to help others. Second, I can speak good English, which is important to communicate with international students. Third, I’m familiar with Chinese dance and calligraphy. What’s more, I’m good at expressing myself.
With these skills and qualities, it’s easy for me to introduce Chinese culture to them. Last year, I volunteered at my community to organize cultural activities, so I’m experienced.
I think I’m a good choice because I’m kind, friendly and talented. Volunteering is a great way to help others and make friends. I hope to join your team!
yours sincerely
Li Ming
