The Foundation’s mission
The Sienna Plantation Community Services Foundation (SPCSF) is a non-profit corporation established in 1999 to invest in the future of Sienna Plantation. Designed to supplement and complement the functions of the existing homeowners’ association, the Foundation is an entity entirely separate from and independent of Sienna/Johnson Development or the Sienna Plantation Residential Association, Inc. The Foundation will enhance services and resources to the community through the sponsorship of programs, activities and events in and around Sienna.  Sienna Plantation Community Services Foundation Grant Request Form

Who funds the Foundation?
You and your neighbors in Sienna. The Foundation is funded by community enhancement/endowment fees, commonly known as transfer fees, which have been assessed on every real estate transaction since December 31st, 1999. The maximum assessment, or contribution to the Foundation, is equal to 0.005 (1/2) percent of the sales price of a home. The transfer fee remains as a deed covenant; therefore, when a property is re-sold in the future, a 0.005 (1/2) percent contribution is made to the Foundation at closing. This allows the Foundation to grow as Sienna Plantation grows.  Sienna Plantation Community Services Foundation Guidelines.

Who benefits from the funds?
All residents of Sienna Plantation. A Grant Advisory Committee comprised of Sienna Plantation homeowners assists the Foundation’s Board of Trustees in determining areas of need and interest within the community.
