The Defense Credit Union Council (DCUC) proudly announces that Temple Santa Fe Community Credit Union has joined as its newest member credit union.
Chartered in 1954 to serve employees of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad and the Santa Fe Hospital in Temple, Texas, Temple Santa Fe Community Credit Union has since expanded to serve individuals living or working in Bell County, Texas. As a state-chartered community credit union, it remains committed to providing a safe, member-owned financial cooperative focused on thrift, economic stability, and personalized service. Deposits are federally insured up to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund.
“Joining DCUC represents an important opportunity for our credit union and the members we serve,” said Lathe’ Owens, President/CEO of Temple Santa Fe Community Credit Union. “We are proud of our long-standing commitment to ‘Members Helping Members,’ and we look forward to strengthening that mission through collaboration, advocacy, and engagement with fellow DCUC member credit unions.”
“DCUC is proud to welcome Temple Santa Fe Community Credit Union as a new member,” said Anthony Hernandez, DCUC President/CEO. “Their decades-long dedication to community service and financial empowerment reflects the very best of the credit union movement. We look forward to supporting their leadership and working together to advance policies that protect and strengthen the credit union mission.”
