KEYS participates in the Gifts In Kind International Retail Donation Program throughout the year, yet our partnership takes on a new spirit during the holidays Store managers and sales associates from The Disney Store, Pottery Barn Kids and Williams-Sonoma take time to package selected merchandize for KEYS to deliver to those in need.

It is always a joy to be on the road with deliveries of Mattel plush toys, Smack & Yak supercharged talking vehicles, dolls, Hotwheels racing cars, puzzles, DVDs and games. Disney dress up items including crowns, “glass slippers” and magic gloves, in addition to Pottery Barn Kids’ bedding and décor were amongst the array of gifted items. Stylish area rugs and youngster-themed furnishings are sure to provide families in need with a special surprise from Santa!

For many, the kitchen is the heart of the home and the always tasteful merchandize provided by Williams- Sonoma surely added joy to many tables this year. Baking items, dishtowels, kitchenware, linens, casserole dishes, and cookware were generously donated and distributed to homeless services providers and thankful families throughout the Metro Area.
