Event Details

USA for UNHCR launched the Blue Key campaign as a way to raise awareness and funds in the U.S. for the plight of refugees worldwide. The statistics are heartbreaking - more than 43.7 million refugees worldwide, many of whom are women and children, may never have a place to call "home" again, unlike you and I.

The campaign symbol is a "blue key" pin or pendant; a key, because it's the one thing that refugees may never hold in their hand again. Purchasing your own key for just $5 is a great way to show support for refugees, as well as for the tireless work of more than 6,000 UNHCR staff worldwide, who work 24/7 to provide the protection, food, shelter and relief refugees need.

The campaign's goal is simple: to spread awareness and grow support for this critical issue by getting 6,000 people in the US to sign up for their own Blue Key by December 31, 2011.


On Wednesday, December 14, we'd love for you to join us for an evening of community and celebration of the refugee spirit. The Scranton #bluekey Tweetup will take place at The Vintage Theater in Scranton from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Your ticket price covers the cost of your very own Blue Key, to be picked up at the event, and Eventbrite's service fees. The tweetup itself is a regular tweetup. There will be goodies and delicious beverages available for purchase from the Vintage Theater cafe, so stop in and stay awhile. 

Thank you for supporting the Blue Key campaign! We look forward to seeing you at the tweetup!
