Restoring Trust Shoreline Project

BBB Foundation Restoring Trust Program

Welcome to the Restoring Trust program! A charitable initiative of BBB Foundation, Restoring Trust helps people recover from fraud by connecting them with ethical, community-focused Accredited Businesses ready to give back.

Restoring Trust is a community-powered initiative of BBB Foundation that helps people recover from harmful encounters with dishonest businesses—especially in the trades industries. Whether it’s a home left in disrepair or a vehicle rendered unusable, the damage often goes deeper than just physical.

Our mission is to restore more than homes and vehicles—we aim to restore trust, dignity, and peace of mind. By connecting fraud survivors with vetted, values-driven Accredited Businesses, we help rebuild what was lost and remind the community that good business still exists.

Together, we’re proving that trust can be repaired and ethical businesses are ready to lead the way.
