May 24 2021 - 4:30PM
Throughout the global COVID-19 pandemic, TransUnion (NYSE:TRU) has
prioritized the health and safety of employees and surrounding
communities. With the significant number of cases in India, the
company mobilized support for its more than 1,500 employees across
the country and the broader population. Today, TransUnion is
announcing a $1 million donation to Direct Relief and United Way
Mumbai for necessary medical supplies.
Direct Relief and United Way Mumbai are working closely with
local Indian hospitals to identify and deliver the most in-demand
medical supplies, such as oxygen concentrators and other vital
equipment. TransUnion’s contribution of $500,000 to each
organization will help facilitate the procurement and delivery of
these supplies to locations in need.
“The COVID-19 crisis in India hits home with devastating impact
to our colleagues, families and friends,” said Chris Cartwright,
president and CEO, TransUnion. “India needs relief now, and
TransUnion is joining the global effort to help. We must all come
together to save lives and stop the pandemic.”
In addition to the donation, TransUnion is helping employees
remain healthy and obtain treatment where needed. The company is
providing online medical consultation services, isolation centers,
emergency services and home testing options. The company also
airlifted 50 oxygen concentrators to TransUnion offices in Chennai,
Mumbai, New Delhi, Pune and other prominent cities for employees
and family members in need of more advanced care. TransUnion will
continue to provide aid to employees, including testing and
vaccination opportunities and additional wellness health
programming.
As a global information and insights company with a role in
economic health, TransUnion acted swiftly from the start of the
global pandemic to provide insights and education to consumers,
businesses and governments to help navigate this unprecedented
situation. This includes empowering consumers to protect their
financial health through free weekly online credit reports and
resources via online COVID-19 support centers. In addition,
TransUnion is also providing innovative solutions and thought
leadership to its customers, such as enhancements to address
increased fraud and a series of Global Consumer Financial Hardship
studies to help businesses understand how consumers were impacted
financially by the outbreak.
The donation is a joint contribution between Trans Union LLC and
TransUnion CIBIL, the company’s credit information business in
India.
