Donation request letter

Michael & Tommy  RNLI

Dear Sir/Madam

My name is Michael and I along with my little brother Tommy (who never listens, so when Mum asks him "are you listening?" he shouts "I'm all ears" ha ha he is so funny.  Anyway we are raising money for the RNLI in memory of our grandad Michael Wharrier who sadly passed away Christmas Day 2020, he was a massive supporter of this charity and also Tommy wants to work for the RNLI when he is older and is currently having swimming lessons and he is doing great!  I am proud of him, we was wondering if you could kindly donate anything towards a raffle prize or auction please, I understand if you can't I know times are hard, and poor Mum is paying for everything even stamps which by the way are well expensive, so any help is much appreciated.

Kind regards, 

Michael 15 and Tommy 5 nearly 6
