passing value from request in function to other function in same controller - laravel-8

Question

I would like in My ContactController.php (which manages my US contact) replace the recipient's email address with a value get from the database in a table called Student ..
'''
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Mail;
use App\Models\Student;
use App\Models\ContactUs;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class ContactController extends Controller
{
public function showForm(Request $request)
{
return view('welcome');
}
public function Infos(Request $request)
{
$info = Student::find(1)->value('monemail');
//// do something
}
public function storeForm(Request $request)
{
///get value of $info
$this->validate($request, [
'name' => 'required|max:100',
'email' => 'required|email',
'phone' => 'required|numeric',
'subject' => 'required|max:100',
'message' => 'required|max:400'
]);
ContactUs::create($request->all());
\Mail::send('email', array(
'name' => $request->get('name'),
'email' => $request->get('email'),
'phone' => $request->get('phone'),
'subject' => $request->get('subject'),
'form_message' => $request->get('message'),
), function ($message) use ($request) {
$message->from($request->email);
//change test#test.fr by value of $info in Infos method
$message->to('test#test.fr', 'Message de Transport Parisien')->subject($request->get('subject'));
});
return back()->with('success', 'Thank.');
}
}
'''
I do not remember how to pass the value of a result to another method in the same controller
Thank for any help or suggestion.

I found that as a solution. It's working. If someone has another solution can be more elegant.
'''
function ($message) use ($request) {
$info = Student::find(1)->value('monemail');
$message->from($request->email);
$message->to($info, 'Message from me')->subject($request->get('subject'));
'''
Have a good day.
