Sample letter:

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to inquire about an advertisement I saw posted on a newspaper last Sunday that mentioned about your hospital looking for volunteers to work part-time. I am very much interested and willing to be a part of this.

I am a university student studying Accounting. I would like to work in your hospital since I think it would be a good stepping stone for me once I graduate from college. I also believe that it is a great way for me to understand how to be more responsible and useful for our community.

That being said, I would like to offer my knowledge and skills related to my major. I can do a lot of bookkeeping tasks and even other technical computing skills for I am proficient in the use of a computer.

If given this chance, I would like to start from Wednesdays to Fridays in two weeks. I am currently finishing my school requirements during Mondays, Tuesday, and Saturdays so I will not be available on those days. However, during my free days, I can dedicate five to eight hours of work in your hospital.

I am looking forward to hearing your response any time soon.

Best regards,

Joyce Smith
