Send Tim To Berklee College Of Music

Hello friends! Thanks for clicking onto this page. I am so thankful that I got a place to start studying the undergraduate Music degree at Berklee College Of Music, the world's leading contemporary music institute, in May of this year. Berklee's alumni include John Mayer (guitarist & songwriter extraordinaire), Charlie Puth (pop star with perfect pitch), Alex Lacamoire (orchestrator and co-writer of Hamilton & Dear Evan Hansen) & Quincy Jones (legendary producer for Michael Jackson). I'll be moving to beautiful Boston, Massachusetts, in what is something of a dream come true.

There's only one small snag... the tuition fees! *gulp*

Incredibly, I've been awarded a $25,000 scholarship but that's not quite half what I'll need for the year's tuition. As an international student, I'm not entitled to any aid with tuition and I can't work on a student visa, so instead I turn to you, dear friends (and to God, but that's a given) for assistance. If my music has in any way brought you joy & life, whether you were found in the Cherry Trees or if you just still can't quite shake The Coconut Song out of your head, I would be so grateful for your donations.

Your funding will be covering:

- Tuition fees
- Course expenses (such as music software and literature)
- Accommodation & living costs (as it's illegal to work in the US in your first year with a student visa)
- My creative and artistic development, which will hopefully positively benefit your life in the future

Every successful musician through time has relied on patrons. Music as a career  is not a guarantee of the big bucks, but my hope is that it is a guarantee of leaving the world brighter than before. If you're up for the adventure, please consider becoming a patron to the arts (ooh doesn't that sound formal?) and financially supporting me for my first year of study.

Thank you for even reading this far. This dream would not be possible without the likes of people like you in my life, and I am grateful.

All my love,
Tim
