Keys for Kids

Keys for Kids is a non profit 501 (c)(3) organization operated by volunteers that are  committed to inspiring youth through recycling keys and community involvement. ​

Since February 2011, Keys for Kids volunteers have collected, sorted, and recycled 4,070 pounds of donated keys from 121 Key Collection Sites, individuals, businesses, organizations, and schools all across the United States and Canada too!

 Community Involvement:

Keys for Kids Events: Keys for Kids volunteers host various fun raising events involving the community; at low or no cost to children and their families. 

Tickets for Kids: Keys for Kids participates in tickets for kids programs allowing us to share the joy of a day at the game or event. Keys for Kids has shared hundreds of game tickets donated by the Minnesota Lynx Foundation, Minnesota Timberwolves Foundation, and TwinsCare to families that would not otherwise have this opportunity. 

Students Recycling Keys: Keys for Kids encourages students to collect keys to be recycled to benefit their classmates. Proceeds of this key recycling process provide in-school scholarships allowing all children the same opportunities to participate in athletics and field trips or replenish negative lunch accounts. All students are welcome to participate in Students Recycling Keys; youth groups, preschool, elementary, middle school, and high school levels of education. 

Keys for Community: Keys for Community program is intended to create an impact in our communities, by recycling keys.  This program will give ownership to kids, allowing them to create Keys for Community Events of their choosing, approved and paid for by Keys for Kids recycling proceeds, to create impact in their neighborhoods.
