So I wrote this email to my mother regarding a new phone. I'm just a poor college student and I can't afford to pay for communication to the friends I don't have.

Dear Ms. Hall,
We would like to thank you for your past donations to our foundation, the future ones as well. Because of you, Marcella Inc. has been able to sustain a well-fed company inside a building your donations pay the rent for.

We at Marcella Inc. appreciate your position as a single-working mother of eight and that you feel that we deserve a charitable contribution in order to keep Marcella Inc. up and running. However, we are writing you to ask if you wouldn’t mind helping us with one more thing on top of the other obligations we have put on you. Marcella Inc. is asking you if you could find it in your budget to pay for 75% of the phone that we would like to replace the old one for.

We understand your trepidation for being unwilling to pay for something that we have lost, but our founder Marcella Wells has upgraded security. We haven’t put a lock on the gate, nor have we hired security personnel to guard the private ownership objects of Marcella Inc. But we promise to hold on to the phone for the sake of all that is human. Our founder will bring the phone on her national flights around the County of Humboldt. She even states she will proudly bring it to the bathroom with her.

This is the phone that Marcella Inc. is trying to find the funds for. If you would like, we could email (we would call but no phone) the company’s other contributors: Daddy Tech. and get back to you promptly. The phone is 100 dollars from the website account of our company’s phone service.

Would you be willing to pay for 45 dollars if the other contributor agreed? Thank you for your consideration Ms. Hall. You mean very much to us and our goals.


Marcella Yvonne Wells, Founder of Marcella Inc.

p.s. Ma, I tried to put a picture of the phone in the email; but I don't think it worked.
