ORIGINAL REQUEST:
To Whom this may Concern;
My name is Jessica and I am writing this letter on my mother's behalf. To be honest my mom is the greatest person I have ever known. We lost our father due to cancer illness approximately six years ago. My mom has re-married, but her current husband currently earns a salary less then R6500,00 rand per month. With this, they need to pay their monthly rent of approximately R3500,00 rand; buy monthly groceries; buy school goodies for the ten year girl still at school and also pay her transport from and to school.
They currently struggle to keep their heads above water and make a descent living. There are no funds to afford a medical aid to assist with any medical expenses when one of them fall ill.
I am pleading with you to assist my mom with the hearing aid, as she will never be able to afford it.
Thanking you in advance
Jessica Stevenson
ORIGINAL OFFER:
Good morning,
I am writing on behalf of Hear ZA which is a fairly new organisation in South Africa. We would like to do something special on World Hearing Day on the 3rd of March and would like to donate some hearing aids to a person in need via Good Morning Angels to commemorate this day and also to launch Hear ZA.
I would appreciate if you could please guide me to the correct person to chat to in this regard.
Thanks!
