Staying informed is one of the best ways to protect ourselves from scams and fraud! 💡

Immigrant Services Calgary (ISC) was pleased to partner with the Better Business Bureau to host an informative workshop helping seniors recognize common scams, identify warning signs, and learn practical ways to safeguard their personal and financial information.

What made the workshop especially meaningful was the enthusiastic engagement of participants. Seniors asked thoughtful questions, shared their experiences, and engaged in lively discussions, making the session a valuable and interactive learning opportunity.

A heartfelt thank you to the Better Business Bureau for sharing their expertise and helping empower our community with the knowledge and tools to stay safe, informed, and vigilant. 💛
