Our History

Our Faithful Beginnings

Chartered in 1952, Faith Credit Union was initially organized to meet the financial needs of members of Cleveland’s Second Mt. Sinai Baptist Church. Since then the credit union, which is a not-for-profit and tax-exempt entity under the Internal Revenue Code, has expanded community-wide and now provides a full range of credit, savings, transaction services, and financial education. Today Faith Community United Credit Union is one of the state’s largest minority owned credit unions in Northeast Ohio.

Mission – Faith Community United Credit Union exists for the financial benefit of the membership and the community at large.  As a Community Development Credit Union, we advocate revitalization, education, community development and the rekindling of community pride and volunteerism.  We thrive under the banner of “people helping people”.

Our Vision – Faith Community United Credit Union will seek to maintain its long term financial stability, preserve its rich legacy, and catapult to be a growing financial institution by initiating partnerships with other institutions such as churches, businesses, community agencies and other credit unions.
