Serving the Financial Needs of South Kansas City's Catholic Community
Catholic Family Credit Union (CFCU) has been serving the financial needs of South Kansas City's Catholic community since 1957. Occupying a single room at St. Elizabeth Parish, CFCU, then known as St. Elizabeth Credit Union, received its charter that year as a parish-based credit union. Since its humble beginnings in that small room, the credit union has grown in number of parishes and overall membership. Currently, more than 17 local parishes, schools, and organizations call CFCU home with membership exceeding 3,000 and assets approaching $10 million.
Our Board of Directors consists of local professionals from varying backgrounds. Candidates must be nominated by the nominating committee and then elected by members at the annual membership meeting. Each must be an existing member and involved within their community. Terms are for three years. The current board consists of the following members:
Shawn Kieffer
Kirk Walters
David Blickhan
Mark Heineman
Deborah Hall
Membership
Catholic Family Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative that serves students, employees, faculty, alumni, and family members of associated grade schools, high schools, and universities. To become a member, potential members need to complete a membership application and include a minimum deposit of $25. This insured savings account makes members eligible for all of the credit union's products and services. As a member of the credit union, you remain a member for life - whether you move, change jobs, or retire - as long as you maintain at least a $25.00 balance (one share) in your account.
Safety
Our credit union is insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). NCUA is an independent agency of the United States government and is authorized by Congress to insure credit unions under the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). NCUSIF is funded by credit union deposits and receives no tax dollars. NCUSIF insures savings of credit union members up to $250,000. NCUSIF has the highest capitalization of the federal insurance funds.
Deposits
We offer a range of deposit accounts, including savings accounts, checking accounts, and certificate accounts. Our deposits are insured by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF), which provides up to $250,000 in coverage for each member's individual share and deposit accounts.
