Community

Our mission is to help our members achieve financial success by providing them with the highest level of personalized service.

As a credit union we are here not only to provide financial services to our members, but to also support the communities in which we live. Our Ukrainian-American Community Foundation sponsors and supports various community events throughout the year.

We invite you to explore our News and Events page to learn more about how our credit union together with its foundation serves its communities in more ways than just interest.
