During the annual day of volunteerism, Key teammates built more than 50 walls for an upcoming Habitat for Humanity home for a local family. In addition, Key provided Habitat with a $10,000 grant to assist with the organization's mission of bringing people together to inspire hope, build homes, empower families and develop communities.
Neighbors Make the Difference Day launched in 1991, with a group of KeyBank employees in Alaska who volunteered for service projects. By 1993, KeyBank extended the concept to many of the communities it served, making it an official day of employee volunteerism. Now, Neighbors Make the Difference Day is a hallmark program and leading corporate volunteerism effort in America, showcasing KeyBank's commitment to communities.
