Sustainability Efforts
For the last five years, the Sustainability Department at Foundation Communities has provided new residents with environmental education on energy, water, waste, and indoor air quality. Our goal is to instill new habits right at move-in. On average, we greet 1,000 new residents each year. As we open more properties, your investment will help to expand this critical program.
