The Credit Union Difference
A credit union is a financial co-operative whose fundamental operating principle is democratic ownership. One member, one vote, regardless of the amount of business you do with us. That means that as a credit union member you have a voice in setting the credit union’s direction. You may also seek election to the credit union’s board of directors.
