Subject: Request for Tuition Reimbursement Program Implementation

Dear Ms$.$ Lu$,$

I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Sam Morelli, and I am an employee at the local UPS store. I am writing to express my sincere interest in the possibility of UPS offering a tuition reimbursement program for its employees.

As someone who, like many of my colleagues including Chris Vanders, is eager to pursue higher education, the financial burden of tuition and textbooks poses a significant challenge. Many of us were compelled to enter the workforce before completing our university degrees due to financial constraints. However, we are keen to further our education and believe that continuing education programs, particularly those offered by universities during evening hours, present a valuable opportunity for personal and professional growth.

Upon researching comparable companies, such as Purolator, it has come to our attention that they provide tuition reimbursement for employees who successfully complete approved courses with a grade of C$+$ or higher, inclusive of fees and textbooks. Enclosed with this letter, you will find relevant information, including newspaper clippings, supporting the efficacy and benefits of tuition reimbursement programs. Notably, studies indicate that such initiatives lead to enhanced employee morale, loyalty, and productivity by fostering skill development and career advancement opportunities.

Given UPS's commitment to fostering a supportive and conducive work environment, I believe the implementation of a tuition reimbursement program aligns with the company's values and objectives. By investing in the educational aspirations of its employees, UPS can not only empower individuals to reach their full potential but also cultivate a more skilled and dedicated workforce.

I respectfully request that you consider this proposal and initiate discussions regarding the feasibility of introducing a tuition reimbursement program at our store. I am confident that such an initiative would not only benefit employees like myself but also contribute to the long$-$term success and sustainability of UPS.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I am available to discuss this proposal further at your earliest convenience. Please feel free to contact me via email at $[$Email Address$]$ or by phone at $[$Phone Number$].$

Yours sincerely$,$

Sam Morelli
