Company expands partnership with the National Forest Foundation

The National Forest Foundation (NFF) is pleased to announce the expansion of a partnership with minuteKEY, the world’s first self-service key duplicating kiosk. Since 2015, minuteKEY and the NFF have been partners through minuteKEY’s Secure Our Forests campaign, planting more than 15,000 trees on National Forests across the country. Now, minuteKEY is expanding the partnership by pledging to support the planting of 100,000 trees on National Forests annually.

Through this expanded partnership, minuteKEY is committing to plant one tree for every two custom forest-themed keys purchased at minuteKEY kiosks. The partnership is part of NFF's ongoing efforts to address the significant reforestation needs on our National Forests. 

Unbeknownst to many Americans, millions of acres of forest cover are lost every year due to wildfire, insects and disease. Reforestation partnerships like these help fund vital projects that plant trees on National Forests to protect watersheds, restore wildlife habitat and fight climate change. 

The National Forest Foundation is excited to expand our work with minuteKEY. Reforestation partnerships like this help protect watersheds, restore wildlife habitat and fight climate change. With support from minuteKEY and their customers, we will be securing the future of our forests for all Americans.

Mary Mitsos, NFF President

"minuteKEY is honored to partner with the National Forest Foundation and support its mission to protect and restore the beauty and health of our nation's forests," said Randy Fagundo, CEO of minuteKEY. "We're also excited about providing our customers an easy way to make a positive impact on the environment.  We are committed to planting 100,000 trees in a year.  Because we are headquartered in Boulder, CO  most of our associates spend much of their free time in the outdoors hiking, skiing and biking.  They are so proud and supportive of our partnership with NFF" 

The Secure Our Forests campaign will continue across college campuses and retail locations this fall. As part of their campaign, minuteKEY has partnered with Boulder, CO artist Phil Lewis for a specially designed, limited edition key for the campaign.
