Letter of Recommendation Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Pennsylvania

To whom it may concern,

I am happy to write this recommendation letter regarding the Boys and Girls Club of Western Pennsylvania, an organization that has been helping youths for over 130 years and continues to make a significant impact in its community.

The Boys & Girls Club of Western Pennsylvania is highly committed to helping adolescents find their purpose and reach their fullest potential. It has several programs, clubhouses, and school partnerships dedicated to enriching the lives of children in the community. These include summer camps, before and after school programs, field trips, and more. One of the best parts of the programming offered is that it focuses on several important areas of education, including STEM, fitness, leadership, and community values. It also helps young adults between the ages of 18-24 enter the workforce successfully.

The club has won many awards including the Boys & Girls Clubs of America Honor Award for Program of the Decade and the Pennsylvania Juvenile Justice Commission Community Based Program of the Year, to name a few. It maintains a mission of striving to maximize opportunity and self-esteem for every child, and because of this, helps make Western Pennsylvania a safe and supportive community.

Sincerely,

Recommendation Letter for The Mellor House Bed and Breakfast

To Whom It May Concern,

I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of an incredible local bed and breakfast, The Mellor House Bed and Breakfast. Located in Edgewood, Pennsylvania, The Mellor House Bed and Breakfast is a lovely Victorian home where guests can visit for a short time or a longer stay while enjoying the gardens, a gourmet breakfast and antique décor.

Built in 1891, The Mellor House Bed and Breakfast was constructed in the Queen Anne style, which is characterized by a non-symmetrical shape and façade, steeply pitched roof, fluted chimneys, and ornamental woodwork. All meals are served on fine china with silver utensils, crystal glasses, and antique linens. There are four rooms which are decorated elegantly to match the original structure and ambiance of the home, with a shared bathroom, living room, and dining area. Guests are also free to enjoy the meticulously tended gardens and covered porch.

Host Kate Luckett is the current owner and proprietor of The Mellor House Bed and Breakfast and has garnered a reputation for hospitality and cleanliness. Over the last 30 years, Kate has taken many courses in hospitality and is a Master Gardener, which reflects in her attention to detail in and around The Mellor House Bed and Breakfast. Kate has hosted many guests from near and far, like Italy, Sweden, China, Brazil, Mexico, Canada, Germany, and Thailand, to name a few.

I highly recommend checking out The Mellor House Bed and Breakfast if you’re looking for a home away from home in Pennsylvania. The hosts are welcoming and accommodating and the atmosphere is serene and impeccably clean, which will help to melt away the stresses of daily life.

Sincerely,
