Default Weed pulling in exchange for a charitable donation?

Looking for feedback/suggestions on the following:
I have noticed in my yard and in my neighborhood that lawn services are not at all effective in dealing with weeds. I have been hand-pulling my weeds and now they are rare and my lawn looks great. I recently learned that I have Parkinson’s Disease (early stages) and I would like to provide a service and help in a small way with fundraising. Would you consider making a donation to either the Parkinson’s Foundation or Michael J Fox Foundation in exchange for me hand-pulling your weeds? Yes, it’s hard work, but it’s good for me to stay active and I know that it’s effective. I am physically very capable and conscientious. I would provide a release of any liability for you. I'm looking for a way to stay active and contribute to the community, so please don't hesitate to message me to try this out. I guarantee satisfaction.

Replying with my phone number via private message. Yes, my wife and I live in St. Catherine, and I will travel anywhere in The Villages. This is as much about community service as it is about keeping me productive, so hopefully you will be delighted with my work and will provide referrals. Thanks for responding!

I am a TV senior, mobility handicapped. I really need help with routine garden maintenance plus some small bush planting. My yard infrastructure is established. I reckon , after some initial couple full days work, I’ need just PT work about 4- 8 hrs. weekly in season, every two weeks through winter. Rate is negotiable, generous if charity donation as equested. We live in Soulliere Villas, just off rt.42 nd near new First Responders Rec. Ctr. Call Bob@ (352)775-8892
