Letter of Inquiry

Mr. Tom Finke pearl                                                                                                                     Commissioner                                                                                                                                      New York City Department of Cultural Affairs                                                                                              31 Chambers Street New York, New York 10007

Dear Mr. Tom Finke pearl

The New York foundation for the arts (NYFA) is a nonprofit organization that has provides the concrete resources that working artists and emerging arts organizations need to strive. “This organization stablished in 1971 as an independent organization to individual artists throughout the state. The main mission of the company is not only to empower emerging artists but also to empower arts organizations across all disciplines at critical stages in their creative lives and professional/organizational development”.

This organization currently operates four programs to enhance and empower artists and organizations to become successful in the future.one of the programs that attained my attention the most was NYFA Learning. NYFA learning also encompasses professional development programs which include panels, workshops, individual consultations and training opportunities for all different types’ artists. This program is enormously important because through this program artists would enhance their skills and abilities to become professional in the future. This program has so much to offer that no one should be skeptical about joining the program. The program efforts combine ongoing programs with special off-site event and collaborate with peers in the different places.

The goal is to establish stronger networks of support for artists around the world and reach new audiences. The program also has a branch of professional development for artists. The main idea of professional development to focus on providing entrepreneurial training for all artists. NYFA learning also comprises a program called immigrant artist program.  This program is to provide professional support to immigrant artists working in New York City metropolitan area, helping them integrate into cultural world. And most importantly upholding the distinct identities.  NYFA Learning also includes programs in Asia.

The goal of NYFA is to expand and builds more programs worldwide. For all these amazing reasons, I believe we should maintain the NYFA program and all its projects active.my main objective in writing this letter is to request you Mr. Tom to help us support this program. This program not only benefits artists all over the world; But the economy and community. I’m kindly asking you to help maintain the program alive by donating or providing us with a fund of 40,000. This amount of money would be used to enhance the program and buy more equipment and technological devices to fortify the program.

I believe that by accomplishing this goal, many artists would benefit from the great projects coming in the near future. This amount of money would not only be used to strengthen the program; But also to expand the program as well. As I mentioned about, the program is expanding worldwide; so having a fund would highly help in the future. It would be amazing to have NYFA Learning all over around the world, and not just in two or three countries. Again many people will benefit from this program not only artists but everyone in general. It would also create employment and raise the economy. The better prepared artists are for the future; the better the future would be for the world. This fund can also be used to open up a place so that everyone could just come in and learn new skills and enhance their knowledge. I would gladly appreciate the consideration of this request. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ I’m looking forward to hearing a response from you Mr. Tom.

Sincerely, Francisco Diaz

 

Francisco Diiaz Cover Letter

time warner cable

Good day Sir or Madam,

I write this cover letter to clearly state my goals and objectives. I am a self-motivated person. I strive to achieve goals to the best of my abilities. I work well under pressure and conjunction with teams. The driving force behind my motivation is my strong desire to make a positive contribution to society. I read with interest your job posting for a technician on your company website. I graduated in December 2009 from LaGuardia Community College with an Associate in Liberal Arts Social Sciences and Humanities. As a college student I was an IT intern who assisted other students with technical IT problems and issues.

The enclosed resume highlights my skills and training.  My studies and internship at LaGuardia Community College have given me a solid foundation in some of the areas of Electronics and Telecommunications (fiber optics, SONET, satellite systems, global positioning systems, networks administrator, and issues in telecommunication industries).  In addition, I have various computer skills that can be beneficial to your organization.  Besides school, I have taken the A+ certification training course. My training in A+ I acquired the knowledge to build a computer from scratch, troubleshoot it and set up a small office network. I was given a certificate stating that I am certified for the above tasks.

If given the opportunity to work for Time Warner Cable I hope to be able to gain experience and an overall insight within the telecommunication field. My desire is to channel my internal drive for the industry toward a career within the telecommunication industry. I hope my characteristics, morals, values and internal drive for success provide an asset for your company. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to read my resume and cover letter. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future to schedule an interview at your convenience during which time I hope to learn more about your company, its plans, goals and objectives, and how I might contribute to its continued success.

 

Respectfully
