The Value of Credit Union Membership

At first glance, credit unions and banks appear to be similar. Both offer similar products and services, but a credit union is owned by you, our member, and is a not-for-profit organization. Instead of focusing on making a profit, we are able to offer lower rates on loans, higher rates on savings, and provide services for less cost.
