Welcome! 

The East End Food Co-op Federal Credit Union is a member-owned and democratically-governed non-profit financial cooperative. Together, we strive to provide equitable access to fair and transparent banking and credit.  We are committed to safe, sound and sustainable banking that responds to the needs of the community, nurtures financial growth and supports financial literacy.


Founded in 1993, the EEFC FCU provides a number of financial services for our members. Our credit union is member-owned and because we do not need to make profits for stockholders, we are able to have low fees and great rates on loans and savings. We work to save you money while serving the community and we are democratically controlled by our members. Every member gets to vote for our Board of Directors and our Board is made up of members. Stop in and see us during our Teller Hours!
