More About Who We Are On January 19, 1982 Genesee Co-op FCU accepted its first deposit, which we kept in a small cashbox. All our records were kept on paper ledgers, and we only offered share savings and very small loans. Since that time, Genesee Co-op FCU has loaned more than $50 million to its member-owners to buy homes and cars, pay for education and start or expand businesses. Members use Genesee Co-op FCU for more than their daily financial needs. We have become a place for first opportunities and second chances. We have watched members rebuild or establish credit with our help and become successful homeowners as well as thriving business owners and entrepreneurs. Through the ongoing support of our members, Genesee Co-op FCU has been able to provide low-cost personal financial services and a level of friendliness and personal service that means we actually know our members and are committed to their financial well-being. Over the years more than 7,100 accounts have been opened. Today more than 3500 people are member-owners with total savings of over $20 million. While your credit union has always been a locally-focused institution, members who have moved far away continue to use this place for their checking, savings, and borrowing needs. The Board of Directors and staff of Genesee Co-op want to thank all of the volunteers and employees who have been a part of our financial cooperative and all the members who make it possible for us to be the Little Credit Union that CAN. Genesee Co-op FCU is: A Community Development Credit Union(CDCU) – that means we have a special designation because we serve a predominantly lower-income community. We are also committed to community development initiatives such as increasing affordable housing, assisting microenterprise and small businesses with services and loans, and providing financial counseling as a core part of our mission to serve our members. For more information on CDCU's, please visit http://www.cdcu.coop A Community Development Financial Institution(CDFI) – that means we are recognized by the U.S. Department of the Treasury as a financial institution serving low and moderate income people and neighborhoods. Our designation as a CDCU helped us earn our recognition as a CDFI. For more information on CDFI's, please visit http://www.cdfifund.gov A Financial Cooperative, Locally-Owned by its Members – that means we are part of the larger cooperative movement (food co-ops, worker co-ops, farm co-ops, housing co-ops, etc.). Our structure as a co-op means our members elect our board of directors who are responsible for the policies of the credit union. Our members OWN this financial institution!

Member Since 2006 "My parents have been members of the credit union for more than 30 years and I became a member by default - a kind of family tradition. My parents opened an account for me and I learned how to fill out the slips to take out and put in money. Two of my siblings also have accounts there. I'm working now and feel a sense of pride when I think about being part of the credit union. They're not just people there, they're friends. They all know my name and it's a really friendly place."
