The Equifax Foundation Sponsors WABE 'My Money Mentors' Financial Literacy Serie ...

EQUIFAX IS PROUD TO PROVIDE ONGOING CREDIT EDUCATION TO HELP PEOPLE UNDERSTAND their personal finances, the credit system, and the role that the company plays in providing access to mainstream, sustainable financial products. The company strives to support economically healthy individuals and financially inclusive communities in each of the 24 countries where we do business.

To that end, The Equifax Foundation is the national sponsor of the WABE (Atlanta NPR and PBS affiliate) series, My Money Mentors, a half-hour docu-reality financial coaching series that makes financial education relatable, empowering, and judgment-free.

My Money Mentors, hosted by Jacqueline Schadeck, CFP®, and Chris Corinthian, a financial literacy coach, is produced by WABE Studios. The series features real people navigating pivotal financial decisions-from first paychecks and family planning to entrepreneurship, estate preparation, and student debt. With empathy and expertise, the hosts help individuals tackle both practical challenges and potential roadblocks that may be rooted in financial inexperience. The series is currently airing across PBS stations nationwide, with episodes also streaming weekly on PBS.org and the PBS App.

"Equifax believes that positive economic change starts with a single financial opportunity. Connecting people with the resources they need to help them establish and build financial health is fundamental," said Kate Walker, Chief Marketing and Communications Officer at Equifax. "Our partnership with WABE on the My Money Mentors series is designed to empower consumers with the information they need on personal finances and financial health." The Equifax Foundation collaborates with consumers, communities, non-profits, fellow corporations, foundation and government stakeholders to support its vision of helping people live their financial best. The Foundation envisions a world where the knowledge, skills and access necessary for people to effectively manage their financial resources are universal.

Equifax offers a number of educational tools and resources, like the Equifax Learn video series, that can help people gain a better understanding of why credit is so important, ultimately empowering them to take control of their financial future. The organization also provides a range of free and premium solutions that enable consumers to regularly monitor their credit health.

Equifax encourages consumers to review their Equifax credit report regularly as well, which they can do online free of charge via myEquifax or request it through AnnualCreditReport.com. Consumers can also order credit reports by phone at (877) 322-8228 or by mail at the address below.
