To Whom It May Concern:

I am a student at CSU Sacramento studying Journalism and Photography.

I would like to pitch a story idea about a current Peace Corps volunteer who is stationed in Micronesia. Her name is Felicia Vasquez and she teaches English and assists community members in community development.

I have already conducted an intensive interview with Vasquez and would be able to showcase her journey so far. I believe your readers will find her story of overcoming all odds and pursuing her dreams to be inspiring.

This feature would also provide background information on the Peace Corps application process along with positive feedback from Vasquez herself.

I can produce the story as soon as you may need it. I look forward to hearing from you and will follow-up with you in a couple of weeks.

Thank you for your time,
