Experian’s United for Financial Health project works with nonprofit organizations around the globe to provide advocacy, financial education and funding to help people in underserved communities improve their financial health.
The year 2020 was a year many of us will never forget. As we continue to navigate this pandemic, Experian® has taken a stance to help those in need. In an effort to empower vulnerable consumers across the globe, especially those further marginalized by COVID-19, we launched United for Financial Health. This effort will help preserve housing through the Home Preservation Grant, support small businesses, and offer career and higher education development programs. Stay tuned as we continue to partner with some amazing nonprofit organizations to bring the United for Financial Health initiative to life across America. We’re just getting started.
