Looking for a front-end developer or designer to build a one-page site for The Acacia Youth Club.

The Acacia Youth Club is a small seniors' association in Soweto that serves about 401 people each year. We've been running on word of mouth and social media, and we need a simple website with information, volunteer sign-up and a donate button.
We have the content, logo and photos ready. We need someone who can design and build it, and show our volunteer how to update it. We'd estimate 20-30 hours of work.
Ideally it should be fast on mobile, accessible, and use inexpensive hosting. We have a domain already.
Please reply with a link to similar work. We can't pay, but we can offer a reference, a public thank-you, and a lot of thanks.
I hope life is good to you.

great idea, hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care!
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Bengaluru!
this could happen to any of us. Thinking of Soweto
Hang in there. Great idea, hope you get there. After 15 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Mumbai
Keep going, Gareth. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Salerno.
Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Albuquerque.
Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
Hang in there, Gareth. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Stay strong, Gareth. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
Shared this with my family. Sent it to 15 people at work. Thinking of Soweto.
Wishing you the best, Gareth. More neighborhoods should do this. Put this on a community board in Warangal this morning.
Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Iztapalapa.
Take care. I hope things turn around soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Love from Auckland.
good luck. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
