A credit union is a cooperative, not-for-profit financial institution owned by its members. Unlike a bank, a credit union exists to serve its members rather than to make a profit for stockholders. Members elect a volunteer Board of Directors to represent them and help guide the credit union. WCTFCU provides members with a safe, convenient place to save, borrow, and access other financial services.
