Hi,
Matt gave the okay for me to post this. Passing along an email I got from FCP.

Regards,
Karl
... -204690793

I'm Jay the Volvo Catalog Manager at FCP. I wanted to take a quick moment this morning to tell you about a gentleman named Robert Spinner.

Robert is an inspiring player in the DIY community and he has helped hundreds of thousands, maybe millions people fix their cars, many of you may already know him from his Volvo DIY videos. Thanks to him I'm sure there are a lot more clunkers still on the road and just as many happy owners.

A friend of Robert's (with his permission) told me he's recently been caring for his wife who is very sick for five years and could use your help. He has been out of work that entire time and still posts videos daily to help people repair their cars.

Robert's friends have set up a GoFundMe campaign to thank him for his long time contributions to the community and help him get back on his feet.

If you're an enthusiast, or have used Robert's videos in the past, I encourage you to give what you can, FCP will be doing so, and all proceeds go directly to Robert.

Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Jason VanGorden

Best wishes Robert, I'm all too familiar with the fact that if a family member doesn't have their health nothing else matters! Hopefully not only will the donations help but the much needed Obama care
