The Local Community Credit Union that Gives Back

SCU Community Involvement
Scott Credit Union has made giving back to its communities a major priority. Over the past 17 years, we have contributed financial donations of over $4 million, and our employees have volunteered more than 26,000 hours to a variety of community efforts and charitable causes in both Illinois and Missouri.

We have increased our community involvement while also increasing efforts to educate consumers of the value of doing their financial business with a not-for-profit cooperative. At SCU, our focus is on serving as the local credit union that gives back to our neighbors and communities, every day.

"We do not just speak the words, we put them into action.

As Scotty, I found true delight bringing smiles to faces without uttering a single word. I truly enjoyed creating unforgettable moments.”
