Most of you know me by now. I'm the tall blond guy, at 565 Lillian way, father of two amazing kids, who occasionally hosts pizza or paella sidewalk gatherings.

I'm reaching out to you because Luigi needs help. As you know, his car is his livelihood. He uses it to make a living by picking up bottles for recycling. Without it, he has no source of income; more importantly, he loses his sense of purpose.

I'd like to help buy a new, more dependable car (or at least finish the repairs on his old one, which needs a lot of care and attention).

I'm really hoping we can all pitch in!
