TB Vets Keytag Program

TB Vets Keytags are a product by donation. Donation to this program fund research, education and equipment to fight respiratory distress right here in British Columbia.

Every year, in the last week of December, TB Vets mails hundreds of thousands of Keytags to people across BC. Our 2008 Keytags will be mailed Dec 28, 2007. We will send 350,000 keytags to people all over BC.

TB Vets Keytags do more than protect your keys from loss. Your donation to TB Vets Charitable Foundation also helps BC breathe. Your donations fund equipment, education and research to fight respiratory distress in British Columbia.

Where the Money Goes

Your keytag donations help purchase vital respiratory equipment for BC hospitals, fund ongoing TB research and education, provide employment for people with disabilities and support the education of respiratory therapists.

Because of you, TB Vets has donated over $10 million across BC to help children and adults across the province. Each year there are more requests for help. Your support helps us save lives.

How the Key Return Service Works

Lose your keys and get them back thanks to BC's TB Vets.

In 1946, TB Vets developed BC's keytag program to identify lost keys and return them to their rightful owners. The keytags originally displayed one's licence plate number. However, for security reasons TB Vets changed this to a secret coded number in 1975.

Whenever a set of keys is lost, the finder can simply drop them into any mailbox. Canada Post then returns those keys to TB Vets, who match the number on the keytag with the owner's name and address.

TB Vets has returned almost 200,000 sets of lost keys to people across BC. We have even returned keys that were found outside Canada. Keys have been returned from as far away as Hawaii, New Zealand and Switzerland.

Do you have a story about lost keys? Email us, and you could be featured on our website!
