About West Community Credit Union

Become a member.

You will need to become a member of the credit union before we can fund your loan.

Membership Eligibility

Credit union membership was once available only to select groups of people based on employer, geographic location, or other group affiliation. The great news is that now, just about anyone can become a credit union member!
