History
It all started at the Bellingham Firehouse on May 19, 1939 as the City of Bellingham Employees Credit Union. Back then, loans were made out of a single cash drawer kept in a desk at the Firehouse and a loan transaction might be interrupted when the fire bell rang. Today North Coast Credit Union membership is available to anyone who lives, works, attends school or church in Washington State. We have 20,000 members and can't wait for you to join us.
