The BBB Torch Awards for Ethics, sponsored by Desert Financial Credit Union, signify the importance of integrity in the business world. We are proud to have undergone a rigorous evaluation process, showcasing our commitment to the four pillars of assessment—Character, Culture, Customers, and Community. This experience has strengthened our resolve to continually uphold the highest ethical standards.

Shelley Bradley, Director of Signature Events for BBB Serving the Pacific Southwest, aptly captures the essence of the event: “This esteemed award recognizes business leaders who demonstrate a superior level of character and ensure their organization’s practices meet the highest ethical standards, thereby generating trust.” While we may not have clinched the award this year, we remain steadfast in our dedication to building trust with our customers and community.

The winners were announced at a grand event on November 15 at the Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix, where industry leaders and ethical trailblazers gathered to celebrate excellence. We applaud the winners for their accomplishments and express our gratitude to the BBB for providing a platform that encourages and recognizes businesses committed to ethical practices.
