On Friday July 28, 2017 the Worcester Bravehearts host military appreciation night and Better Business Bureau of Central New England will be in attendance to show our support to the troops.
BBB’s military line, a program of Better Business Bureau’s Consumer Education Foundation, provides consumer resources and services to our military community. Find your BBB at the ball field to learn more about BBB Military Line and spin our prize wheel for fun giveaways. BBB is sponsoring the fireworks display at the end of the game, be sure to stick around for the show.
“Our military members are often a target population for scammers or unethical business practices,” said Nancy B. Cahalen, President and CEO of the Better Business Bureau of Central New England. “BBB’s Military Line offers educational resources to help our troops protect themselves from unscrupulous marketplace practices and scams. Many, especially those just starting out on their own, depend on their pay checks from their enlistment, and BBB is here to help them make smart purchasing decisions.” Funded in part by BBB Accredited Business dues and in partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense Financial Readiness Campaign, Military Line works to increase the level of financial literacy within military communities and reduce the number of military personnel that fall victim to predatory practices such as high interest auto loans, expensive insurance sales, risky real estate deals and work from home scams. Specific programs include financial readiness training, fraud and scam alerts, company and charity reviews, and dispute resolution services.
Your BBB is honored to be a part of this great event honoring the men and women that serve our country.
Contact your BBB at membership@cne.bbb.org for ticket information. We hope to see you there!
