Produced below is the charming mail exchange
between Joel Gaba our Grade 5 student and Mr Narayanan Chairman of Nestle on
providing support for the fund raiser for an animal shelter
Dear Mr. Narayanan,
I am Joel Gaba, I am 10 years old and a
student from Pathways World School, Noida. This e-mail comes to you as a
request.
Me and my 3 classmates are planning and
determined to put up a Maggi sale stall in our school to collect donation for
an animal shelter in Delhi. We have ourselves visited this animal shelter and
felt that they need help. But before we help them, we need your help
in getting 400 maggi cups for the stall. We are requesting you to kindly
provide us 400 maggi cups as this is for a good cause. Looking forward to
your response.
Thank you!
Yours sincerely,
Joel Gaba

Dear
Mr. Narayanan,
I am very excited and extremely thankful
for your reply!
We can't thank you enough for the help
that you are extending to us. As you
have become our 'angel investor' we would like to mention you in all our steps
of our journey. It will really help us earn more towards the cause. Now I need
your help to understand how do we get the maggi cuppa packs from
you? Would you require any conveyance?
Also we have spoken to the director of
our school - Dr. Shalini Advani and she suggested if we could get your
e-mail on your company's letterhead.
Once again, thank you very much for
extending your support towards this cause.
Kind
regards,
Joel

support as best as I can.

the sending of 400 MAGGI CUPPA packs to you .I want you and your young
enthusiastic classmates to plan how you will sell MAGGI and how much you need
for an Animal shelter in terms of funds .

Thank you notes
Dear Suresh Uncle,
We are very
grateful to you. Thank you very much for supplying us 400 Maggi cuppa! The
whole school enjoyed the sale hosted to collect donation money for the innocent
souls at the shelter. I am very sure that the animal shelter would feel very
happy. We had our PYP exhibition and our topic was NGOs, we took the initiative
regarding that. You have really helped us and as a result we mentioned you in
our story because you contributed a lot towards humanity! I will never forget
this experience.... Thank you very much!
We have attached
some pictures.
Lots of Regards,

Note from Bhavya Balaji
Dear Suresh Uncle,
Have you ever
seen 300 children standing in a line to buy Maggi ever? Yes, it happened on the
2nd of March at our school and you will be happy to see the
photos attached. All this happened only because of your help.
All the students
were very enthusiastic to buy, eat and contribute towards donation for Sai Jeev
Ashram, the dog shelter home at Mehrauli near Vasant Kunj. This dog shelter NGO
has over 350 stray dogs and find it difficult to manage funds. We found this
when we had visited them for our research on NGOs. We felt bad and wanted to
help immediately and at the same time didn’t want to ask our parents for money.
Then we thought about the Maggi sale and we were so happy to collect the money for
the NGO. The best part was all children were happy to eat Maggi at our school
cafeteria.
We sincerely
thank you for your immediate support and it was our first experience in getting
a sponsor who could understand our feelings of charity. We hope you continue to
support any such cause which we will organize once in a while.
Affectionately,
Bhavya Balaji

Dear Suresh Uncle,
This is a thank
you letter for the 400 cuppa maggis. It was a big success all over the school.
You will not believe how much excitement the sale caused when the children
heard about it. This was the first ever Maggi sale in Primary school at
Pathways Noida and that too with a good cause. It has helped us a lot because
this is going to the NGO Sai Jeev Ashram. Once again I would like to thank you
so much for helping us , we have been really blessed by the experience. We will
never forget your help.
