Scope discipline
Still Haven covers two bookable silo suites only. No campus build-out or speculative expansion is included in the current budget.
Budget and capital scope
Still Haven Phase 1 has a defined $85,000 capital scope for two bookable silo suites in Central Texas.
Still Haven shows the final booklet's $85,000 use-of-funds line items for the two-silo Phase 1. The donor path lives on the donor page; Still Haven stays focused on budget, scope, and what capital unlocks.
Capital summary
Supporter scan
What capital enables
Capital closes the utility, access, conversion, and launch-readiness gap that still prevents lawful operation of the two Phase 1 silo suites.
What is already secured
The land direction, silo shell, Texas LLC, EIN, veteran-owner verification, and site access are already in place before new capital is applied.
What stays out of scope
The broader $250,000 ambition remains contingent and is not part of the current public budget or donor path.

Capital transparency
What does funding move forward right now?
Funding is tied to visible work, not abstract overhead. As capital comes in, the next mileposts are utilities, routing, interior completion, and launch readiness for the first usable unit.
- Site preparation and trenching work
- Water, wastewater, and electrical activation
- Silo materials, interiors, contractor labor, and launch readiness scope
- Accessibility, exterior safety, and launch preparation

- Accessibility and exterior safety work
- Launch preparation and contingency discipline
Why timing matters
How does Phase 1 funding turn into visible progress?
The clearest public progress story is simple: complete the enabling work, open two bookable silo suites, show real use, and only then decide what comes next.
Complete utilities and site systems
Close the infrastructure gap that currently blocks lawful operations.
Open two operational silo suites
Bring the first retreat homestay online with launch controls and operating procedures.
Generate earned revenue
Establish disciplined operating proof, maintenance reserves, and reinvestment capacity.
Plan future veteran access responsibly
Use a working two Phase 1 silo suites to shape pilot stays and mission access with real operating proof in hand.
Founder note
Why is Still Haven being built one step at a time?
Still Haven is being developed as a disciplined proof-of-concept, not as a finished retreat pretending to already exist. Phase 1 support helps move two silo suites from concept to something safe, lawful, and truly usable. That is the clearest way to honor public trust and show real progress.
Land and silo shell secured
The site direction and existing structures are already in place before new Phase 1 funding is applied.
LLC, EIN, and veteran verification active
Entity formation and core legitimacy steps were completed before Phase 1 fundraising began.
Document packet and status page live
Supporters can review current scope, use of funds, and milestones without relying on a single homepage pitch.
Proof is documentation-led today
Current visuals are labeled concept. current proof relies on entity, veteran, site-base, budget, and milestone records until a verified photo set is ready for review.
Visible progress
Supporter updates track utilities, build completion, and launch readiness rather than vague campaign milestones.
Two bookable silo suites
The central goal of Phase 1 is two lawful, usable silo suites that can welcome real guests and build trust through operation.
Future veteran access
Once the two Phase 1 silo suites work reliably, Still Haven can shape pilot veteran stays around actual capacity instead of promises.
Giving boundaries
Phase 1 funds exclusions
Funds are not used for
- Founder compensation or distributions
- Debt repayment
- Unrelated operating costs
- Speculative expansion beyond the two Phase 1 silo suites
