You’ll probably realise that we get a lot of requests to help out with fundraising and sponsors, and although we wish we could help everyone, we have to really focus what we do. So, instead, we work with the KFC Foundation which was set up in 2015 and has since paid out grants totalling £3 million to our charity partners.

The Colonel saw the promise in a restaurant by the side of the road, cooking chicken in a new way so like him, we believe in feeding promise. The KFC Foundation helps give everyone the chance to fulfil their potential and to achieve something really great. It supports local charities who are passionate about developing and nurturing young people by offering them safe spaces to socialise, mentoring and work programmes.

In 2019 we also established a partnership with Comic Relief, who share our values and have been supporting organisations in the UK to bring about social change for over thirty years, We are fundraising for Comic Relief by donating 5p from every sharing bucket that we sell to them (excludes Tuesday WOW offer buckets and Limited Time Offers)
