Credit Unions Are A Smarter Choice!

Credit unions are not-for-profit financial institutions dedicated to improving the lives of their member-owners. More than 90 million people are members of credit unions nationwide. Money the credit union makes is returned to members in the form of better rates, lower fees and better service.

As a member of a credit union, you have an ownership interest in the credit union! Credit unions are the only democratically-controlled financial institutions in the United States.

Credit unions are not for profit, not for charity, but for service.

More and more Americans are discovering that credit unions represent the best value for consumers! To find out more information about credit unions, please go to www.asmarterchoice.org. This web site also has a free online database of credit unions you may eligible to join.

To join a credit union you must be eligible for that particular credit union's field of membership. There are several ways to join a credit union. Are you:

• Employed or retired from a company that has credit union affiliation?
• Do any of your immediate family members belong to a credit union?
• Is your civic organization, non-profit group or church affiliated with a credit union?
• Do you live, work, worship or attend school in a county or designated area that is served by a community credit union?
