Community involvement is an important cornerstone of our Experian culture. Our company is dedicated to making a positive impact in our communities, and we are proud to support many organisations every year through both volunteer efforts and donations. The company’s dedicated community involvement program, is deeply committed to making an important difference in each of the communities in which we operate and live. By fostering lasting relationships with non-profit organisations, funding local initiatives and providing community support, the company is able to champion a number of important causes while simultaneously promoting a strong culture of caring from within.

Charity Initiatives: Each year Experian staff choose their Charity of the Year to raise money for. Various fundraising events and initatives take place throughout the year in order to raise as much money as possible for the cause.
