Denton Parks Foundation

Our mission is to engage the Denton community to enhance the mission of the Denton Parks Department to unite, grow and play.

We believe that when communities unite, parks get better and it’s our vision to unite people over parks and play through investments, advocacy, and volunteerism resulting in access and a quality life for all Denton residents.
