CU Difference
A little about credit unions.
Credit unions are not-for-profit organizations that exist to serve their members. Like banks, credit unions accept deposits, make loans, and provide lots of other financial services. But as member-owned cooperatives, credit unions provide a safe place to save and borrow at reasonable rates.
What makes us different than a bank?
Members like you own our credit union. That means you have a say in all the things we do, including giving us feedback on products and services and voting for who represents you on our volunteer Board of Directors. Unlike banks, which are profit-driven to provide large returns to their stockholders, our mission is to make a meaningful difference in the lives of the members we serve. Thank you for being a WECU member and part of the credit union movement.Learn more about Credit Unions
