Dear Mayor Purzycki,

My name is Matt Winick from Ann Arbor, Michigan with a strong interest interest in learning history and social justice. In these subjects, I like to learn the need for Civil Rights to be strong in order to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, and many others.  Mayor Purzycki, the main reason I’m writing you a letter is to explain how I find your work as 56^th Mayor of Wilmington, Delaware to be very inspiring to me.

In your current role as 56^th Mayor of Wilmington, Delaware, I truly appreciate on how you are a strong supporter of Civil Rights by advocating for people with disabilities’ rights,  supporting funds to help minorities including women businesses to help them compete in the economy, and expanding laws to combat against hate-crime to help protect minorities including people who are different. To improve the economy, I liked on how you expand on job-training programs to help youth including workers to develop work-skills, provide tax credit for small businesses including local businesses to help them hire people to work for them, and push to improve the small business development center to teach people about how businesses work.  Your approach to improve education like fund special education to help students with disabilities get the educational resources they need to learn, expand on after school programs to provide youth with help on their assignments from tutors, push for literacy programs to help youth with illiteracy problems improve on their comprehension, and implement more diversity including arts programs to help make education diverse is common sense. On the environment, I like on how you support funds for renewable energy resources to help reduce addiction to oil with gas, encourage businesses including industries to use energy efficient products to help reduce polluting the environment while reduce high energy cost, and work to improve city services to help clean parks including water resources to make them safe for people to use. Another thing that I liked about your work as Mayor of Wilmington, Delaware is how you push for more volunteering programs to help engage citizens to help the community, work with community organizations to expand recreation programs including nutrition education to help reduce obesity while improve on healthy lifestyle, and implement community policing to improve relations between law enforcement with the community.     

Mayor Purzycki, I have autism with a learning disability. Having a disability is hard for me because I have trouble comprehending on learning different advance subjects, sometimes I struggle to communicate my thoughts, and get teased. Your commitment to be a strong supporter of Civil Rights including people with disabilities’ rights really inspires me to work hard on my disability. I enjoy watching “Youtube First Person: Wilmington Mayor Mike Purzycki” and “The Delaware Way Mayor Mike Purzycki” because I enjoy learning about your goals in your current role as Mayor of Wilmington, Delaware including your commitment to reduce crime.  Your work as current Mayor of Wilmington, Delaware gives me motivation to continue to learn history and social justice.  My future goal is to someday work in these areas to help emphasize the need to make Civil Rights stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, and many others.

I strongly believe that you are making a great difference in your current role.  I’m very proud on how you are working hard to support Civil Rights, improve environmental protection, and many others.  You have inspire me to work hard on my disability, learn more about your work, and inspiring me. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter, working hard to make a great difference, and inspiring me. I wish you the best to continue to make a great difference for society.

Sincerely,

Matt Winick
