Dear Mrs Black,

 I am writing to you with regard to apply to the internship you organize. I have heard about that project your charity is setting up in Mexico and I would like to do something meaningful while I can. I have seen lots of thing about  that country and particularly about its population. I, who have the chance to live quietly with all modern conveniences, am determined to help the populations that have to fight every days to have a decent life. Moreover I want to meet these people whom I consider brave and courageous. I could be an asset for you, indeed I am well-travelled and I speak Spanish fluently. In addition, I am purposeful, adventurous and I am not afraid of being face-to-face of danger and taking tough decision. I am also conscious of what we will be doing and how it could be difficult because I have already done an internship abroad.  I will be ready to do whatever you ask me to do and I will be happy to help this population. Whether it is permits to starving people to eat in cooking and giving them food, to build shelter for homeless, to help and take care of drug addicts which are very numerous in Mexico, or teaching illiterate people to read. This humanitarian trip means a lot to me, firstly, it could give me experiences for my future. Secondly and most importantly, it could broads my horizons and I think that this project is something that could change me, in a better way, it could be rewarding and valuable and could make me more understanding and open-minded.                    

Thanks for your attention, I look forward to hearing from you soon and please do not hesitate to contact me,

Your sincerely,

Pétillot Antoine.
