Alicia,

I’ve attached the draft for the proposal I mentioned to you last week. I would appreciate your feedback by tomorrow afternoon, if possible, as it needs to be redrafted and submitted by the end of the week.

I really appreciate your help, especially as I am aware that this project does not fall under your usual responsibilities.

If we get the grant, we’ll have enough funds to continue the project for another two years.

Sincerely,
Tom Yen
