As the year comes to end, we would like to highlight some of the amazing work that our BBB Foundation of Connecticut has done throughout 2024. 📚 We educated our community on topics such as scams targeting young adults, how to avoid fraud for seniors and how businesses can avoid scams in the marketplace. ⚾ We held our annual Military Appreciation Night with the Hartford Yard Goats where we honored our military community and our 2023-2024 Student Ethics Scholarship winners. 🤝 We gave back to our community by attending events like Stand Down to support our veterans as well as packaging 5,289 pounds of food for Foodshare to help those in need. Thank you to our sponsors! HomeServe USA Sippin Energy Products Challenging Minds LLC
