TOPIC: You're telling your friend about a charity event you took part in.

Dear [friend's name],

Hi! How are you? Hope you're well! Sorry I haven't written in ages, but I've been drowning in responsibilities! How was the art contest you took part in recently? Bet your entry blew everybody's mind!

Guess what? My school organized a fashion show last week! A bit sudden, isn't it? Actually, we happened to watch a documentary in class about the economically disadvantaged and we were moved to tears so we decided to raise money for the cause. Wouldn't you, too?

Believe it or not, lots of work was put into the show: Some classmates' relatives work in the fashion industry and were of great help! They helped us design cheap, trendy and comfy clothes. I helped with designing and printing the leaflets about the event as well as posting about it on the internet. Wish you could help! We could have made good use of your artistic genius!

Fortunately, it was an overall success! Students from our school volunteered to walk on the catwalk and did so gracefully! The school theater was packed! The local newspaper even wrote about it, which was great publicity and led to even more purchases of our items!

Anyway, got to go now, need to study for a test... Write back soon and fill me in on your news!

Love,

[Your name]
