Dear Mr./Mrs._______________: (insert donor’s last name)
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for you generosity in funding the

I am currently a freshman/sophomore/junior/senior majoring in __________, and my GPA is

and then teach high school French and English in the southeastern part of Arkansas.
While attending school I have been involved with the Student Government Association and
Lambda Omega service organization. We provide tutoring and mentoring on a weekly basis to

campus blood drives and a winter coat collection.
Receiving this scholarship motivates me to maintain my GPA and complete my degree. I look

you for your confidence and willingness to help me achieve my goals.
Sincerely,
