We exist solely to serve our members. We are committed to helping our members prosper by being a trusted resource and advisor for financial services. Our Mission We are people helping people. CCU strives to make a positive, lasting difference in the lives of our friends and neighbors, and in our communities. We understand the needs and challenges of the people we serve, and that has helped us strengthen our ties to the community through corporate sponsorship for not-for-profits, free financial seminars, employee volunteer efforts, and our many financial literacy education efforts.
