Neighbors Day began in 1991, when a group of KeyBank teammates in Alaska volunteered for service projects and dubbed the effort “Neighbors Make the Difference Day.” By 1993, the idea had swept across many of the communities that Key serves and became an official day of employee volunteerism. It is now the hallmark of KeyBank’s commitment to its neighborhoods. Sleep in Heavenly Peace Buffalo is a 100% volunteer organization dedicated to building, assembling and delivering top-notch bunk beds to children and families in need. Often, these children end up sleeping on couches, blankets, and even floors, affecting their happiness and health. Sleep in Heavenly Peace’s mission aligns perfectly with KeyBank’s mission of helping the communities it serves thrive. KeyBank teammates contribute thousands of hours of their time and talents to local nonprofit organizations each year to give back to their local communities. - [See WGRZ-TV’s coverage of this day of volunteerism in Buffalo](https://www.wgrz.com/video/news/keybank-teammates-give-back-by-volunteering-on-annual-make-the-difference-day/71-92df74fc-c22b-4df0-9f03-8ecf3109ae32) - [Learn more about KeyBank’s Neighbors Make the Difference Day](https://www.key.com/about/corporate-responsibility/community/neighbors-make-the-difference-day.html) - [Learn more about KeyBank's commitment to helping clients and communities thrive](https://www.3blmedia.com/profiles/keybank) [![KeyBank Logo](/sites/default/files/Clients/Screen_Shot_2016-05-13_at_10.27.28_AM.png)](/profiles/keybank) ### More from KeyBank ###### [KeyBank Foundation Awards $200,000 to Capital for Change To Expand Affordable Housing and Community Development in Connecticut](/news/keybank-foundation-awards-200000-capital-change-expand-affordable-housing-and-community) Apr 2, 2026 9:00 AM ET ###### [Northeast Ohio Business Owner Avoids $5,000 Loss Thanks to KeyBank Fraud-Prevention Program](/news/northeast-ohio-business-owner-avoids-5000-loss-thanks-keybank-fraud-prevention-program) Mar 31, 2026 9:00 AM ET ###### [New Junior Achievement Experiential Learning Center, Presented by KeyBank, Focuses on Workforce Readiness ](/news/new-junior-achievement-experiential-learning-center-presented-keybank-focuses-workforce) Mar 30, 2026 9:00 AM ET ###### [KeyBank & CEI Partnership Brings Growth to Maine](/news/keybank-cei-partnership-brings-growth-maine) Mar 27, 2026 9:15 AM ET ###### [Key Private Bank Leader Cathy O’Malley Kearney Named Chair of Cleveland Foundation Bank Trustees](/news/key-private-bank-leader-cathy-omalley-kearney-named-chair-cleveland-foundation-bank-trustees) Mar 26, 2026 9:00 AM ET ###### [KeyBank and Parachute Credit Counseling Team Up to Offer Free Tax Preparation Services in Western New York](/news/keybank-and-parachute-credit-counseling-team-offer-free-tax-preparation-services-western-new) Mar 25, 2026 11:50 AM ET ###### [Protecting Yourself from Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Powered Imposter Scams – Tips from KeyBank](/news/protecting-yourself-artificial-intelligence-ai-powered-imposter-scams-tips-keybank) Mar 19, 2026 9:00 AM ET ###### [KeyBank Foundation Invests $240,000 in YWCA North Central Indiana to Support Women’s Education and Economic Advancement](/news/keybank-foundation-invests-240000-ywca-north-central-indiana-support-womens-education-and) Mar 16, 2026 9:00 AM ET
