In a Remarkable Nationwide Initiative, the Caleb Group's ‘Awareness About Financial Frauds’ Brought Together Participants From Across the United States to Raise Awareness
In a remarkable nationwide initiative, the Caleb Group‘s 2024 event, ‘Awareness About Financial Frauds’, brought together participants from across the United States to raise awareness and combat the growing threat of fraud targeting the elderly. The event took place on August 25th, 2024, and spanned 20 states, including Georgia, California, New York, Florida, Illinois, South Carolina, Washington D.C., Massachusetts, Louisiana, Virginia, Texas, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Michigan, Nevada, Alabama, New Jersey, Wisconsin, and Hawaii.
This year’s event was a resounding success, with 48 conferences held from coast to coast on August 25th, 2024. A total of 662 attendees, including seniors, their families, and concerned citizens, gathered to learn about the various tactics used by fraudsters and how to protect themselves and their loved ones.
The conferences provided crucial information on identifying scams, understanding the latest fraud trends, and taking preventative measures to safeguard personal information and finances.
The event was supported by 150 dedicated Caleb volunteers who played an integral role in the execution of the conferences.
These volunteers, who share a passion for serving their communities, offered their time and expertise to ensure that the event ran smoothly and that attendees received the help and guidance they needed. Their efforts were instrumental in creating a welcoming and informative atmosphere at each conference.
The ‘Awareness About Financial Frauds’ 2024 event demonstrated the power of community and the importance of coming together to address critical issues facing vulnerable populations. With participation from such a wide range of states, the event successfully reached a diverse audience, reinforcing the message that protecting our elderly from fraud is a collective responsibility.
As the Caleb Group continues its mission to serve and protect the elderly, the success of this national event highlights the ongoing need for education and vigilance in the fight against fraud. Caleb plans to build on this momentum, expanding its reach and impact in the coming years, with the hope of making even greater strides in safeguarding the well-being of seniors across the country.
