History
On May 3, 1933, a credit union, currently known as NorthPark Community Credit Union, was organized under a state charter and named Pitman Moore Employees Credit Union. The original charter was signed by eight founding members. The original investment in shares was only $35. At the time of its first annual meeting, 116 members had savings totaling $2,987, and 55 members had borrowed $2,443 for a net profit of $57.83.
In August 1969, Pitman Moore Employees Credit Union became known as Dow Employees Credit Union after Pitman Moore was bought by Dow Chemical Company. In 2003, Dow Employees Credit Union became a community-chartered credit union. At that same time, the name was changed to NorthPark Community Credit Union.
Today, NorthPark is the first and only 100% virtual credit union in the nation.
Whether we are providing services to eight members in 1933 or to over 7,000 members today, we continue to focus on our members and products and services we provide them. After all, that is what sets us apart from all those banks down the street!
