Case Study: A Request for Information Email
You are in your second year of university, and you are the class president. The university provides very few healthy food options in the cafeteria, and you would like that to be improved.
Draft an email to Maria Jones, Director of Nutrition for Whole Foods Supermarket chain. Ask Ms. Jones if she can provide you with information and assistance in asking your university Board of Directors to provide a larger variety of healthy alternatives to the junk food that is currently available in your school cafeteria. Also, you just saw in the news her company won a national supermarket award for the "The Least Amount of Food Wastage" in the USA. (Be specific).
Ask her to provide real-world examples and cases where a school has done this already and what improvements they witnessed. Ask her if she has any supporting data or information for reasons to do this to help you convince the School Board of Directors. In your letter include an example you found on the internet to provide an example where another school made healthy changes.
Also, ask her if she could come and speak to the University Board to persuade them to provide better food choices.
Conclude your email with a polite request to meet, set the date and time. (Write your action plan) .
