Dear Maryanne and fellow board members,
I have never met Isabel in person and really do not know her very well. Her application letter is both interesting and encouraging to learn of her experiences in high school as well as her accomplishments and goals. We certainly know how very important the field of social work is in our world today. I have never written a letter like this.If someone who has done this before would like to give me some guidance, I would be very happy to write the letter.

Sincerely,
 Deb Reed

Good morning Lucia,
I hope you’re doing well.
I am applying for the NFB of CT scholarship this year and have all of my documents electronically. Would you be able to forward my information to the scholarship committee?
Thank you in advance.
