Talk to anyone who works with a credit union, and you will hear about their members.

Each member is an owner of the credit union, and each credit union works for the betterment of their members to provide low cost loans and thrift opportunities.

Being a member is being a part of a community and coming together to serve one another.

Credit unions have a long, deep history in our nation.  Explore the timeline and see for yourself the how much credit unions have impacted our nation.

  • In 1909 the first credit union is established in New Hampshire
