History
Greenville Federal Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative located throughout Greenville County, South Carolina. The credit union has served its members since 1968 when it was founded by nine teachers from the School District of Greenville County as an educator's credit union. In 2001 the credit union was granted a community charter that allows anyone who lives, works, worships, or attends school in Greenville County (including relatives of members) to join. Today its membership has grown to more than 22,000, with four branches in Greenville County and $150 million in assets.
Specialties
Greenville Federal Credit Union is truly a low-cost alternative to traditional banking. We have all the products and services found at traditional banks but we are fundamentally different in that our account holders are also owners. Our philosophical difference is huge - we view and treat our members as owners, not as potential sources of income. As a not-for-profit entity, our focus has always been to help our members prosper by providing money-saving advantages and reasonably priced financial services.
