It takes a Village
House of Tríus is being built from the ground up — independently, without institutional backing, and at this stage without a salary. This page is for people who’ve encountered the project and want to be part of what it becomes.
Support doesn’t only mean money. This project is at a stage where the right resource, the right space, or the right pair of hands can matter just as much as a financial contribution. What we’re asking for, in any form, is belief in what this could become.
If that’s you — this is where to begin.
Why This Project Needs a Village
Most creative projects only become visible once they are already polished, funded, and finished. The messy, expensive, time-consuming work of getting to that point — the research, the infrastructure, the tools, the failed experiments — happens in private, usually at the personal cost of the people building it.
House of Tríus is unusual in that it is being built in the open. The project you can see right now is the scaffolding of something larger: a genuinely sustainable creative ecosystem for neurodivergent and independent artists — one that is built on collaboration, shared resources, and the belief that different ways of thinking are a creative strength, not an obstacle to be managed.
That takes time. It takes infrastructure. It takes people who are willing to show up before the thing is finished, because they can see what it’s trying to become.
What early support actually does
It covers the costs that exist whether or not the project is ready to be seen — hosting, software, development time, event production. It also signals something to funders. Grant applications are strengthened by evidence of community belief in a project. When you support House of Tríus — in any form — you become part of the case we make to the institutions we approach for larger funding.
Your support, your name, your presence in the story of this project, matters in ways that go beyond the financial.
You are not a customer. You are part of how this gets built.
Ways to Support
These tiers are not subscriptions or transactions. They describe different depths of involvement — and different kinds of contribution. Give what you can, in whatever form feels right.

What Comes Next: The Village Marketplace
Support right now flows in one direction — toward building the foundations of the project. But the long-term vision for House of Tríus is something more reciprocal.
In time, the Village will include a marketplace — a space where creators in the community can post wish lists: the tools, the skills, the small amounts of funding that would allow a specific piece of work to move forward. Visitors and supporters will be able to browse these lists and respond directly — with financial support, a skills exchange, or a resource they already have.
This is not crowdfunding in the conventional sense. It is closer to the older idea of a village economy — where people with different skills and resources find ways to support each other’s work, and where generosity circulates rather than accumulating in one place.
The people who fund the foundations now are the people who make that ecosystem possible.

Questions
Is my financial support tax deductible?
House of Tríus is an independent creative project, not a registered charity. Financial support is not eligible for Gift Aid or tax relief. It is treated as income by the project and declared accordingly.
How does in-kind support work in practice?
Use the form on this page to tell us what you’re offering and roughly what you have in mind. We’ll respond to arrange the details. Nothing is assumed or committed until we’ve had a conversation — there’s no obligation on either side until we’ve agreed that it’s a good fit.
What if the project changes direction?
Creative projects evolve — that is part of their nature. The core values of House of Tríus are fixed: supporting neurodivergent and independent creators, building tools that help rather than hinder, and growing a community built on collaboration. If the shape of the project shifts, those values will not. Your support funds the ongoing work of building something worthwhile, whatever form that takes.
Will my name appear publicly?
Only if you want it to. When you support the project, you will be asked whether you’d like to be named publicly. You can choose to be listed anonymously, or not listed at all. Grant application credits will use whatever name or descriptor you provide.
Is Village Elder status really permanent?
Yes. Village Elder is a founding designation — it marks the people who supported the project during its earliest stage, before it had an audience or institutional backing. Once the project grows beyond this founding period, the tier will close. Those who hold it will always be acknowledged as part of the original foundation.
I’d like to support but none of these feel quite right. Is there another way?
Yes. Sharing the project with people who might connect with it is genuinely valuable. So is signing up to the newsletter, attending events, and engaging with the work. The Village Marketplace, when it launches, will create more space for exchange. Support takes many forms — what matters is that it comes from a genuine place.
