You're expecting the returned value from your wanted subroutine to be
returned by find(). The return value of the wanted subroutine is ignored.
Furthermore, find() doesn't return anything meaningful.
If you want a list of the found files your wanted subroutine is going to
have to append them to some array. If you want to act on a given filename,
put the code that does the action in the wanted subroutine.
