INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: [ ]
FROM: [ ]
DATE: [ ]
SUBJECT: [Old Shaker Furniture nominated for Humanitarian Award]
[The Old Shaker Furniture Co.] believes that aiding one’s fellow man is a moral imperative in today’s society. That belief translates in the way we do business.
When [Home and Garden Furniture] was destroyed by a fire last month, we could have sat back and let the employees deal with the problem. Instead, we offered [John Hammer, H&G Furniture’s CEO], space in our warehouse to rebuild his company. Some would say that we were foolish for sharing our company’s space with a competitor. We believe it was the moral thing to do.
It seems that others thought our decision was right. We just received word that we were nominated for the [Alger Humanitarian Award]. [Give some background information about the award.]
The winner of the [Alger Humanitarian Award will be announced next month at a dinner in Manhattan].
