MEMORANDUM
TO: All Drama Club Members
FROM: Secretary, Drama Club
DATE: [Insert Date, e.g., 5th April 202_]
SUBJECT: Urgent Meeting to Discuss Fundraising for Murang'a Drama Contest Trip
Dear Drama Club Members,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to invite you to an important meeting to discuss a significant development regarding our upcoming trip to Muranga for the Drama Contest, for which we need to raise Kshs 20,000/=.
To our delight and astonishment, the school Principal has graciously offered to contribute Kshs 15,000/= towards our goal. This generous support brings us closer to achieving our target but leaves us with a remaining balance of Kshs 5,000/= to raise.
To plan how we can bridge this gap and finalize preparations for the trip, I urge all members to attend a meeting scheduled as follows:
Date: [Insert Date, e.g., 7th April 202_]
Time: 4:00 PM
Venue: School Drama Room
During the meeting, we will brainstorm fundraising ideas, assign responsibilities, and ensure that our preparations for the contest are on track. Your presence and input are crucial to making this trip a success, and I encourage everyone to come prepared with suggestions.
Kindly confirm your attendance with me by [insert deadline, e.g., 6th April 202_]. Should you have any questions or ideas to share beforehand, please feel free to reach out.
Thank you for your commitment to the Drama Club, and I look forward to seeing you at the meeting.
Yours sincerely,
[Signature]
