New Computer for Neil

Hi,
My name is Cindy. Since becoming permanently disabled in November of 2022, I have been supported by partner Neil, who works as a freelance audio engineer.
Due to preexisting conditions, my disability pension is only $1000 a month, and the current economic stresses our country has been facing have impacted Neil's ability to find steady work. In spite of depleting our savings, and going further into debt each month, we've barely been able to keep our heads above water.
Neil's computer is now over 12 years old, he's no longer able to update his operating system, and it is on its last legs. Without a new computer, we will have no way to support ourselves. We have no immediate family to rely on, no savings left, and not enough credit to replace it.
I am therefore hoping to raise enough money to purchase a new computer for him before his current one dies. We've determined a Mac Mini and a separately purchased monitor is the most cost-effective option.
Estimated cost (not including tax):
- $ 1600.00 24 GB Unified memory (4 ports) Mac Mini with 1T SSD / INT DRIVE
- $ 160.00 LG FHD 24 Inch monitor
Please only give if you are able. We understand these are tough times for everyone.
Heartfelt thanks to everyone who helps out. Either by donating or sharing. Any assistance is sincerely appreciated.
Thank you all,
Cindy
