A FORMAL LETTER

The Community Fund
16 Suffolk Street
London
SW144NL

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to enquire about lottery funds for a community project in our town.
Banyoles is a town in the north of spain. There are a lot of interesting places in and around the town. There are a lot of new residential areas, but there are, too, a lot of people who haven't got a home. For that reason, we would like to build a centre for the people who have not got house, family or food. This centre could make Banyoles a better town.
I would be grateful if you send me information about lottery grants. If you have any questions about our project, please do not hesitate contact me.

Yours faithfully,
Gemma Riera
