King Charles III Charitable Fund
King Charles III Charitable Fund (KCCF), formerly known as The Prince of Wales's Charitable Fund, is a United Kingdom-based charity fund. It provides grants to charity organisations in the United Kingdom and internationally. Grantee organisations vary in focus but fall under the umbrella of one of the fund's designated funding themes.
The fund was founded by King Charles III, then Prince of Wales, in 1979. At King Charles III's accession, the fund adopted its new name.
The fund is primarily a grant-making organisation, running both large and small grants programs. The Trustees oversee all grant-making, and award grants across the following funding themes:
By early 2023, the charity had donated £73 million to different causes since its establishment in 1979. In January 2023, it was announced that seven charities would receive £1.95 million from KCCF over three years.
Founded by King Charles III, Accounting for Sustainability was a subsidiary of KCCF until 31st March 2026. The organisation was incubated by KCCF from 2004 to 2026. Accounting for Sustainability (A4S) encourages the responsible business community to recognize the benefits of considering the environment and wider society as part of their day-to-day business decisions and establish a global framework for integrated corporate reporting. It has three main aims, inspire finance leaders, transform financial decision-making, and scale up action, to transition into a sustainable economy. A4S gained charitable status in 2021.
The Royal Countryside Fund was a subsidiary of KCCF until September 2023. RCF works towards creating a sustainable future for the UK countryside. It supports family farmers and rural communities through grant making and training programmes, such as the Farm Resilience Programme, which provides free business skills training to family farmers. Over the past decade, the PCF has invested more than £10 million in over 400 projects, helping to empower rural communities across the UK.
The Fund is also active in helping new entrants into farming and rural enterprise, and aims to provide young people with the skills they need to ensure that the countryside remains a living, breathing place for farmers in the future.
Duchy Originals Limited changed its name to KCCF Trading Limited in 2025. It was set up as a company by the then Prince of Wales in 1990, and is one of the largest organic food brands in the UK. Duchy Originals focuses on good food, good farming and good causes in a 'virtuous circle'. The Duchy Organics range is sold exclusively through Waitrose. Each year, the royalties from the range are donated to KCCF and distributed to not-for-profit organisations through grants programmes. Since 2009, global sales of Waitrose Duchy Organic products have contributed more than £50 million, supporting good causes across the UK and in more than 20 countries internationally.
