Dear Sir:
Greetings of peace and goodwill!
I am writing on behalf of the farmers of Adams, Ilocos Norte, who are in urgent need of
assistance to sustain their agricultural activities, particularly in the aftermath of Typhoon
Kristine, which caused significant damage to their crops and irrigation systems.
To help them recover and continue their farming operations, we respectfully request your support
in providing 16 water pumps for the farmers of Adams. These water pumps will be essential in
ensuring the availability of water for their crops, especially as they work toward rehabilitating
their farmlands and recovering from the devastating effects of the recent calamity.
The farmers of Adams rely heavily on agriculture for their livelihood, and with your assistance,
they will be able to restore productivity in their fields and safeguard their means of income. We
believe that this timely intervention will greatly contribute to their recovery efforts and
strengthen the agricultural sector in our region.
We sincerely appreciate any help you can extend to support the farmers during these challenging
times. Thank you for considering our request, and we are hopeful for a positive response.
Yours faithfully,
GERRY AGUSTIN
