Wonder Works is a Collection Point for Keys for Hope Key Drive!

The Keys for Hope table at Elfstravaganza!

The Keys for Hope® organization is asking the Charleston community to help keep an important project going. Pitch in by donating old and unwanted keys for a massive recycling and fundraising initiative, spearheaded by local children. Wonder Works has a bucket waiting to collect thousands of keys to be recycled and turned into symbols of hope for Charleston’s homeless!!

The effort is working to raise money to help build the new shelter and soup kitchen for Crisis Ministries.
For the month of February, the goal is to collect 10,000 keys! Gather up your random keys that are no longer used and bring them to us!
