Dear [Name of Recipient],
My name is Christina, and I am the HR manager at the House of Library in Orlando, FL. I am writing to recommend Denise as a candidate for a scholarship. I can think of no one I would recommend more highly than Denise. I am Denise's manager and her friend. We share a love of Swedish candy, Orange is the New Black, and a monk called Thich nhat hanh. In other words, I know her well, both personally and professionally.
What impresses me most about Denise is the distance she has traveled in her life. She has covered many miles, coming to the United States from Sweden, the country where she grew up. But she has also covered a great distance in her level of achievement. She was born to parents who are natives of Gambia, and who moved their family to Sweden when Denise was an infant. They were seeking greater opportunities than they had had in Africa, and they wanted their children to live better lives than they had growing up.
Denise has told me how important education was to her parents. She was always encouraged to do well in school and to be curious about the world. She did both those things. Her grades were excellent, and she started working at age fifteen so that she would have money to finance trips abroad. She still loves to explore new places and meet new people, constantly broadening her horizons. Her ability to work well with all kinds of people is a valuable asset in her job here at the House of Library, which has an international clientele. The fact that she has acquired several languages makes her even more special.
I am impressed with her level of community involvement, too. Denise works with underprivileged children, and also volunteers for UNICEF and at a women's shelter. In college, she was active in the student body, working with international students like herself. She believes strongly in giving back and paying forward the generosity others have shown her.
Denise is on the Dean's list at her university. She works hard, both at the House of Library and at her other job as a nanny. She has the second job out of necessity, because she has a large amount of student loan debt-which brings me to the reason for writing this letter. I believe that Denise is deserving of a scholarship to attend the University of Florida, and I would urge to you to consider her as a recipient. It is my understanding that a scholarship is necessary in order for her to attend university. The House of Library would love to be able to finance the Masters in Public Relations that Denise intends to earn, but as a startup company, we are not yet in the financial position to do so. I wanted to do my part to help her by offering Denise my strongest recommendation as a scholarship candidate.
I have found that Denise excels at whatever she sets her mind to. Certainly, her job performance at the House of Library has been exemplary. Her scholastic record is likewise impressive. She is a determined young woman who will put all her energy into achieving her goals. I believe she will be an asset to the graduate program at the University of Florida, and so I offer my strong recommendation that she receive a scholarship.
Sincerely,
Christina
