Request: One hand washes the other (Rochester NY) Hi everyone! ONE HAND WASHES THE OTHER. I’m looking for an electric bike or electric scooter that someone may no longer need or might be willing to donate or trade. I lost vision in one of my eyes, so I’m no longer able to drive, but I’m not helpless and I don’t want anyone to feel sorry for me. I can still work and take care of myself. I’m a survivor, not a victim. 💪❤️ I don’t have much money right now, so I’m absolutely willing to work for it or trade services. I can help with house cleaning, dog walking, pet sitting, yard work, organizing, or other household jobs. 🧹🐕🌿 Having an e-bike or electric scooter would make a huge difference in helping me get to appointments, get groceries, run errands, and take care of my family. If you have one sitting unused, or know someone who might be willing to work something out with me, please send me a message. I’m not asking for pity — I’m asking for an opportunity. ❤️ Thank you for reading, sharing, or helping me get the word out. Every lead means a lot! 🙏❤️
