text: spelling and grammar? i've written a letter to which i am going to give to my school saying why i would like to go on a trip to new orleans for hurricane relief. i really would love to go, but i know there are many mistakes in my letter: i’m good at listening i will be able to locate the major problems and help solve them. ^ you need a comma between listening and i.. and i suggest adding the word help before locate  i know i would grow allot from this experience. ^ a lot is how you spell it  but i know they happen, and sadly it’s to innocent people. ^ i'd change the second part of the sentence to "and sadly innocent people are also affected."   i am a compassionate person and wish to grow my caring for people by first hand experience helping people who need it the most. ^ i would take out "to grow my caring" and change it to "to show my caring"
