Michael S. Manaigault, Senior Vice President Dear Mr. Manigault:<\/p>\n It was a pleasure meeting you yesterday at the Greenlining Institute meeting.\u00a0 Thank you for affably sharing your background on growing up in Los Angeles.\u00a0 It is refreshing to hear those candid remarks in the environs of an\u00a0executive boardroom.<\/p>\n Your management of community development activity undoubtedly comes with a stream of requests for in-kind support and donations.\u00a0 For this reason, I would like to stand out and offer our support to you.\u00a0 I would like to lend a hand to your corporate representation as it comes with a highly favorable opportunity to make a difference on the quality of life for people of where I work and live.<\/p>\n The large and growing population of the greater Los Angeles area makes it difficult to meet the overwhelming challenges of this region, by any size corporation.\u00a0 Humbly, we want to offer our proletarian insight on the various campaigns and activities having value to Bank of America in and around the Compton area.\u00a0 There are socioeconomic programs needing immediate attention in this area, and your community investment decisions on resources of time, labor, and money are reciprocally valued on making a difference.<\/p>\n For example, our organization has a memorandum of understanding with Broad Spectrum and the Internal Revenue Service that has designated our group for managing a Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Center in Compton.\u00a0 Communities with VITA centers have measurable worth on the income generated for their respective local economy.\u00a0 Bank of America may see benefits with this endeavor.<\/p>\n
