About Us
The DELTA Foundation is a mentorship program that specializes in helping at-risk youth in Louisville obtain the tools necessary to be successful academically, socially, and athletically. In June 2019, we opened the DELTA gymnasium, which is equipped with 3 classrooms and a high school-length basketball court where we currently have over 250 students enrolled in our various programs. In February of 2024, we opened our newest location in Newburg.

Be a Change Maker
DELTA Foundation is seeking to purchase the property they currently rent when it goes up for sale later this year. This is the next step in their vision to transform lives by helping at-risk young athletes in Louisville obtain the tools necessary to be successful academically, socially and athletically. The 35,000 square foot campus is also home to Portland Avenue Community Trust, A One All-stars, and One Hundred Black Men of Louisville. As such, the campus has become a hub of free and enriching activities for underserved youth and families in Portland. But all of that could change when the campus goes up for sale later this year.
