From Hotel Key to Life-Changing Movement: The Inspiring Story Behind The Giving Keys
The Giving Keys believes in the transformative power of words. Each of their products carries a message designed to inspire, uplift, and encourage. Their mission is to create meaningful human connections through words and foster a ripple effect of positivity, urging everyone to “Pay It Forward” by passing their keys on to someone who needs the message more than they do.
The story of The Giving Keys begins with an NYC hotel key. While on tour, actress and singer/songwriter Caitlin Crosby wore her hotel key around her neck so she wouldn’t lose it. To reflect the message in her debut album “Flawz,” she engraved “Love Your Flawz” on the key as a reminder to embrace unique imperfections. When she realized how much her fans resonated with the message, she was inspired to start a movement—one that would help people connect with the words they need and then pass them on when they meet someone who needs that message more.
Potential To Be Renewed
Caitlin realized that, in a way, everyone is like old keys: unique and flawed, but with the potential to be renewed and find purpose again and again. And so, The Giving Keys was born. Each key is engraved with a message like BELIEVE, HOPE, LOVE, or STRENGTH. When the person wearing the key encounters someone else who needs the message, they are encouraged to pass it on and share their “pay it forward” story.
The Giving Keys is a pay-it-forward company that hand-stamps products with inspirational words like Believe, Love, Strength, or a personalized word. Customers are encouraged to embrace their word and then pass it on, “paying it forward” to someone they feel needs the message more than they do.
