Social Contribution/ Coexistence with the Community

Since March 2019, we have begun sponsoring hackathons to enhance the relationship with society and local communities, which is one of the activities that embody our management philosophy, "Earn the trust of society through corporate activity based in integrity."

The “a i ” of “a i h a c k” has two meanings: "show interest = love" for students who will lead the future and human resources in various specialized fields, and "AI" that reminds of technology.

We sponsored a hackathon program for university students at AIFUL, LIFECARD and AIRA & AIFUL,　a group company in Thailand. Through this event, we hope to contribute to the development of local economic activity and retail finance, as well as to the achievement of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The Muninova Group is working to improve the financial literacy of young adults and prevent them from financial troubles, such as holding financial and economic education seminars at universities and other educational institutions.

In June 2023, the Japan Financial Services Association and four major money lending companies, including our company, established the Financial Literacy Improvement Consortium based on the belief that the money lending industry needs to unite to address financial crimes that are becoming increasingly sophisticated and complex, such as entrepreneurial, side job, part-time job scams and investment fraud targeting young adults.

Muninova Group introduced a volunteer leave program in 2007 to support employees’ voluntary social contribution activities, such as community service and disaster relief activities.

Muninova Group regularly conducts blood donation drives for employees in response to requests from the Japanese Red Cross Society to cooperate in their efforts to secure a stable blood supply against the background of an aging and shrinking population.

On November 25, 2020, we received an award from the Kyoto Blood Donation Promotion Council.

Muninova Group carries out cleanup activities on a daily basis around its head office (Kyoto city) and Contact Center (Kusatsu city, Shiga prefecture) to contribute to keeping the environment of the surrounding areas clean.

To prepare for emergency situations, Muninova Group has installed AEDs (automatic external defibrillators) at its head office (Kyoto city), Tokyo office (Minato ward, Tokyo), and Contact Center (Kusatsu city, Shiga prefecture) for its employees, visiting customers, and local residents. We also offer courses on emergency first aid to our employees.

AIFUL makes donations to the Japanese Red Cross Society to support the victims of disasters and assist in the restoration of affected areas such as 2020 Kyushu floods,Support money for the spread of new coronavirus infection,Hokkaido Eastern Iburi Earthquake

At LIFECARD, we issue credit cards designed specifically to support social contribution activities, donating a portion of the revenue generated to partner organizations and NPOs. Through these donations, we help support the dreams of children battling serious illnesses, contribute to the protection of endangered wildlife, and assist in expanding the educational programs and facilities offered by Kamiyama Marugoto College of Technology, among other initiatives.
