Brian Schwartz, a former VP of a digital advertising agency in New York, was laid off in mid-June due to the COVID-19 crisis.

He decided to spend his time giving back while he searched for a new job.

"I just want to do good," Schwartz said. "It feels good, it feels right, following my heart."

Schwartz launched the website iwanttomowyourlawn.com where people can request his services. He also included a link for gas money donations.

With bills mounting and a newborn at home, Schwartz said he believes in good karma.

"It's been a really tough stretch the last few months for all of us," he said. "It's stressful and I just wanted to put some good out there."
