OUR MISSION

We are a nonprofit community development financial institution that serves the financial needs of our members. Membership in our credit union is open to anyone who lives, works, worships, or attends school in the county or counties of our service area. As a division of Self-Help Credit Union, we also promote the mission of Self-Help Credit Union, which is to create and protect ownership and economic opportunity for all, especially people of color, women, rural residents and low-wealth families and communities.

THE CREDIT UNION DIFFERENCE

As a nonprofit financial institution, we evaluate our success by the community development impact we have in the communities we serve. View the recent Self-Help IMPACT STATEMENT.
