Chicken, chicken, chicken. That’s all we care about right? Wrong.
As obsessed as we are with finger lickin’ buckets of goodness, we have a wider mission.
That’s why we set up the KFC Foundation and we’ve been dishing out grants by the bucket load (a tasty £5.2 million in fact) to our charity partners ever since. Charities who are empowering young people across the UK to fulfil their potential and build a positive future by providing spaces that allow young people to feel safe and secure, helping them to unlock talent, build life skills, provide mentoring or improve their chances to gain meaningful employment.

WHAT WE DO
Colonel Sanders lived by two rules. Do all you can and do it the best you can. So, while we’ll always share the goodness of our finger lickin’ chicken, we’re also sharing the Colonel’s generosity and goodness too.
WHO WE'RE HELPING
Following our first grant funding call in 2020 we’re excited to announce our 28 new partners from across the UK who have received funding from the KFC Foundation, including 2Funky Arts, Tarner Community Project & Eagle’s Nest Project.
WHAT WE’VE DONE
We’re not usually ones to boast, but we’re proud to have supported 158,908 young people through our local charity partnerships in 2018/19. Plus, we’ve given mouth-watering grants of £699,168 to 16 amazing charities right across the UK. All in a year.
