Details
Description: In June 1977, the Santa Cruz Community Credit Union opened its first savings accounts and embarked on what is now over three decades of community service. The founders of SCCCU crafted our guiding principle on improving the quality of life for everyone in our community. We believe in empowering those who have been marginalized by the status quo. Together with our community, SCCCU has attained remarkable achievements by maintaining a steadfast commitment to our mission to promote positive social and economic change.

We've come a long way from our first days in 1977 near Harvey West Park when we could (and did) keep our money in a cigar box. Through decades of service, we have proven beyond a doubt that community development credit unions can make a difference. Not-for-profit, self-sufficient community development financial institutions have an impact, and micro-enterprise lending is effective.
Mission: The Santa Cruz Community Credit Union is a nonprofit financial cooperative that promotes economic justice. We are local, independent, and member-owned.
Volunteer Info: We are recruiting new and returning volunteers to support our free tax assistance and financial education program.
