More than £250,000 has been raised by a local charity fund.
The We Love Lichfield cash has been collected over four years and is used to offer grants to local organisation.
The money is raised through events and donations with interest earned on the invested money being handed out.
Simon Price, CEO of cutlery firm Arthur Price and patron of the We Love Lichfield fund, said: “I think it is testament to the people and companies throughout the Lichfield district that we have achieved this amazing milestone.
“We will continue to give money away, but we still have the aim of managing the fund with the help of the Staffordshire Community Fund, and hope to reach our ultimate target of £500,000 by 2017.”
