Dear sir,
I hope you are doing well. I am writing to let you know about a problem faced by poor students like me. In the winter season, everyone wants to be
safe from the cold. Due to the low income of my father, I and many other students like me are unable to buy uniform jackets and uppers. I want to
request you to relax this school rule for the students like me. So that we could carry on our studies without facing this problem. We will wait for the
response.
Yours sincerely,
X.Y.Z
