Dear Sir,
RE: Donation Acknowledgement
This letter serves to acknowledge receipt of your kind donation of $1,200.
The Little Friends Orphanage is grateful for your generous donation in response to our earlier appeal for funds to start the New Year off for the 15 little residents at Little Friends.
For your information, your kind donation has been put to good use. The boys and girls at Little Friends have sufficient school uniforms and materials including books, copies and stationary to start their new school term. They can join other boys and girls at a regular school without any hesitation now. They are happy and doing well despite being only in the second month of the New Year.
All this has been possible due to your valuable contribution. God bless you with health and wealth always. Once again thank you very much for your kind donation.
All the best for your endeavors.
Yours sincerely,
Maggie A. Davis
Director
Little Friends Orphanage
