Here's the original mail:

Heads up - this isn’t the typical email you get from me.
But these aren’t typical times.
Someone else reading this exact same email right now, is
in crisis. They’re out of work and trying to keep up with
bills, find childcare, and buy groceries.
So today, I’m not asking you to sign a petition, or chip in for a
lawsuit. Today, for the first time ever, I’m asking you to
help a fellow SumOfUs member in need.
I worked around the clock to put together a page on our website
for members like you to ask for help.
And there are already hundreds of urgent requests from
fellow bee-protecting, corporate-greed-smashing, rainforest-saving
members like you – caring people like you. But right now,
they’re people in dire need of some care themselves.
I’m determined to get help to as many people in our community as
possible. Will you help out too? If you chip in CA$1 today, then
we’ll pool donations together and distribute it all to fellow
SumOfUs members in need.

When Tom lost his business, he tried to become a gig driver for
DoorDash...only to have his car break down on day 3. He couldn’t
afford to fix it.
But because Tom is a SumOfUs member, he knew
about our global support platform, where people can ask each other
for help. So he took a leap of faith and posted his story. And
Vladimir, someone like you chipped in to help him. Tom said:
“It was the greatest thing
ever. I still tear up in my eyes when I think of it. This
person doesn't know and will probably never meet me, but they helped
me regardless. I’ll never be able to thank that person enough.”
Will you help, too? There’s still hundreds of more urgent
requests from people like Tom — single parents out of work,
people struggling to pay their rent.
Even if you’ve never met them, these are the people that fought
with you to take on the biggest corporations in the world. You’ve
worked with them to save the bees, protect human rights, and fight
for our planet.
If you chip in a bit today, we’ll distribute 100% of your gift to
these members in need. There’s over 600 requests, but we’ll do our
best to send something to everyone. You can make sure your fellow
SumOfUs members know they aren’t alone.
