Costa Mesa, Calif., December 22, 2025 – With a mission to bring Financial Power to All™ and spread kindness this holiday season, Experian® and Jimmy Darts teamed up to give consumers a meaningful boost, gifting three recipients $1,000 in cash and a free premium Experian membership[i] along with a donation to Feeding America® to help people facing hunger.
Jimmy Darts is a well-known social media personality, content creator, and philanthropist recognized for his heartwarming videos in which he surprises people in need with cash and life-changing acts of generosity. The Experian campaign aimed to reach consumers through Jimmy’s millions of followers across his social media platforms and highlight Experian as consumers’ “BFF” – Big Financial Friend – here to help them no matter where they are in their financial journeys.
“We hope this not only gives recipients a boost but also helps more people know that they are not alone in navigating their finances,” said Dacy Yee, President of Experian Consumer Services at Experian. “We aim to be a financial co-pilot, here for consumers to lean on for support and resources that can empower them to reach their financial goals.”
One of the recipients approached by Darts in a Riverside, CA store was given the choice to keep $500 or bless another shopper with it. They chose generosity, passing the funds to someone else. In return, Darts gave the other shopper the $500 and rewarded the recipient with $1,000 from Experian along with a free premium Experian membership.
Watch Jimmy’s videos on YouTube here, which have garnered more than 15 million views across his platforms and helped spread the word that the recipient needed a wheelchair accessible van for their child. Dart’s followers have contributed more than $280,000 for the family.
As part of the campaign, Experian also pledged to donate $1 to Feeding America for every “like” on Jimmy’s videos, up to $75,000, and reached that goal. Feeding America invests 98% of all cash and non-cash donations directly into programs and services that help millions of people facing hunger.
