Leeds Building Society Charitable Foundation was established by the Society in 1999 to support the communities around its nationwide network of branches by making donations to charities working in those areas. Since it’s establishment the foundation has made total donations of over £890,000.

Who can apply

The Foundation accepts applications from UK registered charities, or those affiliated with a registered charity.

Donations usually fund items of “capital expenditure”. That means items must directly help those in need, rather than contributing to the charity’s running costs.

The Foundation is unable to support:

Religious, military or political projects
Overseas charities
Individuals (including sponsorship)
Animal welfare projects
Medical research
General running costs, such as salaries, rent or utility bills
General fundraising appeals

You don’t need to have an account or mortgage with Leeds Building Society to apply for funding.
