fwd: This is a little awkward

Lyle,
Hope you had a great Labor Day weekend. I just wanted to quickly follow up on Erica’s message from earlier (see below).
As you may have heard, our campaign van broke down over the weekend. Thanks to some quick-thinking auto repairmen, it’s back on the road and ready to visit more North Carolina counties (thank goodness).
But take it from a Finance Director like me: Unexpected costs like this can really blow a hole in our campaign budget and planning. That’s not a situation we can afford to be in — not with the huge FEC fundraising deadline coming down at the end of the month.

Subject: This is a little awkward
Hey Lyle, it's Erica.
I feel pretty awkward about this.
But I’m writing to you from the side of Route 85 with an urgent request.
Believe it or not, our old campaign van just broke down!
Yes, that’s correct. I am currently sitting in a rusty campaign van on Route 85, just outside Kannapolis, North Carolina!
Some friends of mine are on their way to come rescue me. But bringing our van into the repair shop is going to be a HUGE and UNEXPECTED campaign expense this month.
Lyle, this van is how we get around North Carolina, criss-crossing the state to meet every voter. I really need your help getting our campaign van back up and running ASAP to continue our 100 Counties, 100 Days Tour this weekend, so I am humbly asking:
Thank you SO MUCH for your support!
— Erica ❤️
P.S. Here’s what the van used to look like when it was in tip-top shape. Can you chip in $10, $5, or even $3 to help cover repair costs?
