About Us

What is a Credit Union?

A credit union is a financial cooperative, organized by people who have a common bond, that specializes in saving and borrowing services. Members pool their assets, providing funds for loans to those within the group who have a need. The members own and operate the credit union.

The purpose of this credit union is to encourage thrift among its members, create a source of credit at a fair and reasonable rate of interest, and provide an opportunity for its members to improve their economic and social conditions.

History of Service Credit Union

Service Credit Union was created in 1934, when a group of farsighted Wisconsin Public Service employees joined together to help their fellow employees in those desperate days of the Great Depression. In those days, it was not easy to borrow money except at high rates of interest. The credit union provided a convenient place for members with a few extra dollars to pool funds and help other employees who needed a loan to tide them over in an emergency.

Since its beginning, Service Credit Union has grown into a sound financial institution by meeting the changing needs of its members. It has built a good financial basis with assets presently over 13 million dollars.
