Replacement MacBook Pro for My Music Career
Donation protected
My name is Robbie Owens, I’m a Creative Artist student at ACM.
I’m a singer/songwriter, producer and performer. I’ve also started my own Independent Record Label, as a Ltd company (Benevolent Records).
My dream is to keep music alive and to share my voice with the world, to help the world grow and heal through music, love and passion. This is why I became a creative degree student.
Not too long ago, (the day before my birthday) Myself, with my fiancée, my dad and my mum went to Tesco’s to buy ingredients for cocktails. We were going to my dads for a celebration. Mum (being less physically mobile than the rest of us) waited in the car, with my bag (containing my MacBook) in the boot. Within minutes of us entering Tesco’s, mum called dads phone to ask if anything valuable was in the boot as a lady was shouting from across the car park “Someone just opened your boot and ran off with a bag”!
I want to point out that I only brought my Mac with me, to show my family my work/music so far. (I’m now at level 6 of a degree).
We immediately reported it to the police (we have a crime reference number). We searched the area and asked Tesco’s to view the CCTV (They were not helpful).
I tried to claim on my insurance, but they won’t help because the car wasn’t locked. (Despite my disabled mother being present in the vehicle).
I have most of my music saved to usb. My issue, is that I can’t continue working on my music without a Mac, ultimately meaning I’m going to seriously struggle to complete my degree/successfully kick start my music career.
Please help me to achieve the funds to purchase a new MacBook, so that I can achieve my ultimate goal of releasing my music to you. As I stand, I still have time to catch myself back up on the coursework I have lost, I still have time to get my material recorded in time for my assignments to come and I still have time to get my career back on track! I just need a Macbook to work from and as I can’t get my Mac back, I really need your help.
