A Credit Union offers all of the same products & services banks do, but Credit Unions are not-for-profit, so profits are given back to the members via lower rates, fewer fees, and the willingness to help people and businesses that banks may not see merit in. Wauna Credit Union offers Checking & Savings Accounts, plus IRA and Money Market Accounts too. We offer Auto Loans, Personal Loans, Home Loans, and even Instant Loans of $1000! We also have great rates on Credit Cards. Check out waunafcu.org to learn more!
