Friends of Delta was founded in Spring 2023 by a small group of residents from the suburbs surrounding Delta Park. They came together with a shared goal: to help restore, protect, and enhance one of Johannesburg’s most loved green spaces through practical, ongoing action. 

What began as a community-led effort to improve safety, repair infrastructure, report environmental issues, support security coordination, and care for the park has grown into a broader collaborative initiative focused on keeping Delta Park clean, safe, functional, and welcoming for everyone who uses it. 

Today, Friends of Delta operates as an initiative under the CraigPark Residents’ Association, with all park-related donations and expenditure ring-fenced specifically for Delta Park projects and operations. This structure allows for greater transparency, better coordination, and the ability to make a more meaningful and lasting impact in the park. 

Delta Park does not stay beautiful, safe, and well-maintained by accident. It takes daily attention, community involvement, practical action, and ongoing funding. From security support and maintenance initiatives to environmental improvements and urgent response efforts, every contribution helps keep the park in the condition we all want to enjoy. 

You do not need to live within the CRA area to support Delta Park. If you use the park, love the park, walk your dogs there, run there, visit with your family, enjoy the bird sanctuary, or simply believe that shared green spaces matter, becoming a Friend of Delta is a practical way to help protect it. 

Monthly contributions from R50 help fund ongoing work in the park, including security support, maintenance, environmental improvements, and response efforts for issues identified on the ground. Once-off donations can also be arranged. 

Every rand donated to Friends of Delta goes solely towards the upkeep, protection, and improvement of Delta Park.
