About TFCU
TFCU is a member-owned financial service cooperative. We were
chartered in 1939. We currently have approximately 18,000 members,
over $150 million in assets, 3 branches, and over 60 employees.
Originally named the Civil Aeronautics Federal Credit Union,
over the years the Credit Union expanded its field of membership
to include many government agencies, businesses, and associations.
You own your Credit Union and as an owner, each year you elect
your Board of Directors
. The Board of Directors set policy, including dividends and
interest rates. As a member, you're encouraged to serve on committees
and run for elected office. With no outside shareholders, only
members benefit from TFCU earnings through full financial services,
competitive savings, and economical loans.
