Credit Unions are mistakenly thought of as just another financial organization, but through founded values and organization, we identify ourselves as cooperatives. A credit union is unlike any other financial institution. Owned and run by the people it serves, every credit union is formed by a group of people wanting to control their own financial destiny. Bringing their money together as savings and by making low-cost loans to each other, they establish a cooperative serving its members with other services and added benefits.
