Caring Strangers Bring Hope

I was recently looking through Spare Key’s archived documents and I came across an end of year giving letter that our founder, Patsy Keech wrote in 2003 titled...

 “Caring Strangers bring Hope.”

In that email, she included testimonials from families we had helped that year. A father wrote:

She also included a note from a 15-year-old girl that said:

Spare Key’s founding principle of giving families the gift of time by their loved one’s side to focus on recovering as a family still holds true to this day. And it’s because of generous donors like you that we fulfill this mission every year.

While Spare Key has grown our impact with the launch of our Help Me Bounce program, our mission has not wavered. We continue helping families facing devastating medical crises, “No matter the illness. No matter the injury. No matter the income.”

A family whose son was in the hospital fighting for his life when they found Help Me Bounce, recently wrote us:

“Caring Strangers Bring Hope”

It was true in 2003 and it’s true today. For that – Spare Key is grateful to you.

As we closed out another year here at Spare Key, our nonprofit had a lot to be grateful for.

We are grateful for our donors that support both Spare Key and families directly through our Help Me Bounce program.

We are grateful for our partners and corporate sponsors that strengthen our mission each year through events and donations.

We are grateful for our volunteers that ensure those events run smoothly each year.

We are grateful for every single one of you for bringing hope to the families we serve.

You help Spare Key fulfill our mission each year of helping families facing devastating medical crisis, “No matter the illness. No matter the injury. No matter the income.”

On behalf of our Spare Key team, Board of Directors, and the families we serve, thank you for another incredible year of helping more families than ever facing real hardship pay real bills in real time.
