Good day,
Permit me to introduce myself, my name is Mrs. Deborah Hoult am a 62 years old widow resident in London, United Kingdom. I was a member of the CONSERVATIVE WOMEN'S ORGANIZATION (CWO) here in London, a Volunteer of the RAISE KIDS FOUNDATION and until recently, an active member of the POSITIVELY WOMEN (PW). a national charity group working to improve the quality of life of women and families affected by HIV. You might be wondering why am telling all this, to what purpose?. I lost my husband to cancer in 2004 and until then He was a project Manager with Ashanti Goldfields Company (AGC), a partly British-owned company in Ghana. He has being the source of my joy and inspiration and has supported me financially in my many charity works. We were a loving couple, our only pain was our inability to bear children, though we tried to make it up, by helping as many children as we could.
A year after the death of my husband, I was diagnosed with Uterine Sarcoma cancer, though I have being able to receive the best medical care, I have being in and out of surgery, and as I write to you now, am preparing for a surgical operation next week, and no matter the outcome, I have vowed that I will never go to the hospital again, because am just tired of hospital bed. After the death of my husband, I founded what I called the " HOULT FAMILY TRUST" which received funding from my late husband's investment turnover and donation from private groups. I used the money from this Trust to fund local charity organisation whose core objectives are providing support for homeless children, destitute women and people living with HIV.
I am contacting you, because I do not want this charity ideal of funding local charity to die with me, I want you to continue from where I stopped, and also help local charities in your country and local community, your duty will be to do little research to find out those small charity organisation in need of funding and you will make out plan for them to receive funds from the Trust account which you shall solely operate and administer. I shall donate the sum of Ten million, one hundred thousand Dollars ($10,100,000.00) of my husband fixed deposit in Ghana to you for this purpose.
"Why me"? You may be asking yourself now, I want you to know that God work in a miraculous way and you may just found out how important it was that I contact you, because if am not wrong, you might in the past always wanted to be involved in charity work, but has not being able to do so, or have done so in little scale due to limited means. I am offering you the chance to be actively involved. Though charity work as you know is offered free, but a laborer is worthy of his meat, so am offering at your acceptance of this project 30% of the total sum for your effort, 5% will be used for all logistic, management, salary and getting the necessary research information, though if it pleases and you already have enough, you can also donate part of your 30% to the trust account, as you will be richly blessed also. I want you to consider this task, and if you are inspired like I was inspired, kindly reply me with your full name and phone number, so that I can have my attorney contact you, and make all necessary arrangement for you to receive the fund and proceed with this great work. I want to thank you for taking your time to read my mail, while I pray that you will consider this task for it's purpose and also please put me in your daily prayers. While I wait for your reply, I leave you with this word
"There is no greater investment, than investing in people"
Love
Mrs Deborah Hoult.
