Let’s create something from our collective loss.
SAVE YOUR HOUSE, APARTMENT OR BUSINESS KEY
About Keychain Project
Introduction
This started from a post on Nextdoor. Kate Sullivan and her husband lost their home and workspace of 25 years. Through her grief, Kate posted an idea. What if everyone who lost their homes, apartments or businesses, donated their keys to create a memorial. I read the post and thought this is a beautiful and heart wrenching idea. How can I help? While Kate and her husband navigate through the process of rebuilding their lives, I, along with other volunteers, am dedicated to making this happen. We need your help. Spread the word and save the keys. We will soon have drop-off spots organized.

Keychain Project Mission
Keychain Project - Empowering Communities
A key has power. A key is the last thing you put in your pocket or toss in your bag as you go for your neighborhood walk and you always fish around for when you get back. Keys are among the most vital tools humans own; Hearing the jingle of your keys makes you feel safe. Your keys are what you always need and can never find. It’s the one thing that can be lost and found several times on any given day (right up there with your eyeglasses). Keys can be lost or found and hidden or shared. They can stick or work smoothly. For anyone who has lost their house or apartment, we ask that you do not discard your old keys. We are establishing drop sites to collect them, and turn those many, many keys into a tribute to the devastated communities. We feel this will be a powerful visual statement that we hope will help people move forward.
