What is a Credit Union?

A Credit Union is a not-for-profit member-owned financial institution operating for the benefit of its membership. Credit Unions pay higher dividends on savings and offer reduced rates on loans to their members.

About Us

The Erie Federal Credit Union is not a Bank, Savings and Loan or a Brokerage House. We are a full-service Federal Credit Union with a community charter. For 72 years, we have honored our mission to responsibly deliver a wide range of financial services to meet the needs of our membership. We serve our members and community with spirit, compassion and heart.  It's who we are.  Our Community Charter allows anyone who lives, works, attends school, worships or volunteers in Erie or Crawford County, PA to become an Erie FCU member.

 ECFU History

The Erie Federal Credit Union was formed in June 1936 by a group of local Erie educators who started the Credit Union using their own money. They began serving members with meager means and a very small staff of one. Our first office was in the home of a Board Member. This office served our membership until iin 1973, when we built our first office on East 38th Street. During the 1990's we saw a large increase in our growth.  In 1995 we began to deploy our own ATMs.  In 1997  we introduced the debit card and in 1999 acquired an east-side office at 2436 Buffalo Road and also built a west-side office at 1005 Greengarden Road.  In the fall of 2003, we merged with two Credit Unions. These mergers provided our members with a downtown office at 518 State Street and another east-side office at 1306 East Lake Road. Our Millcreek office was opened in early 2004 at 5500 Zuck Road.
