Arkansas flourishes with trusted businesses and scam-savvy consumers!

This is the goal of The Better Business Bureau of Arkansas Education Foundation.  The BBB Education Foundation, recognized as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, was established by the Arkansas BBB in 2011 as a beacon of ethics research, education, and advocacy for businesses. It serves as an integral extension of the BBB's core mission to enhance trust within the marketplace. The Education Foundation plays a pivotal role in fostering a network of reliable businesses by promoting accreditation standards, providing educational and training opportunities, and honoring businesses that exemplify ethics.

Central to its mission, the foundation strongly emphasizes consumer education and student initiatives. It is dedicated to empowering consumers with the knowledge to make informed decisions in a complex marketplace. For the younger generation, the foundation focuses on nurturing the consumers and business leaders of tomorrow through student-focused initiatives. These programs aim to ensure they are well-equipped to confidently take on the marketplace and become leaders who value ethics.

We believe in the power of trust to grow people, businesses, and communities.
