What is a Credit Union?

A credit union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative. Which means we are owned by and operated by you and others like you that choose to conduct their financial business at the credit union. Credit union members own a “share” of the organization. Credit unions are governed by a volunteer Board of Directors made up of members like you, elected by you, the owner. Most other financial institutions are owned by paid stockholders.
