As part of this mission, the Experian team puts their hearts into the communities where we work and live." Community outreach Humanitarian and service organizations to which Experian has given its support include the Orange County Food Bank, the Child Abuse Prevention Center's Adopt-a-Family program, and Stop Hunger Now. Experian also uses its professional tools to establish social innovation programs that identify and fund new products to foster financial inclusion, promote financial education and support small-business entrepreneurs. It has extended the Experian Credit Educator program to the Orange County Rescue Mission, a local, two-year transitional housing project that brings homeless men, women and children into a program focused on financial self-sufficiency. Last year, Experian employees contributed more than 7,000 hours in volunteer time for the company's North American philanthropy partners, while raising and donating nearly $1 million.
