Yes, we literally started inside a box! In 1949, American Viscose Corporation employees started their own credit Union, Viscose Employees Federal Credit Union with just their personal cash and a shoebox. They conducted their banking over lunch periods and soon grew much larger. A few decades and a couple name changes later, ONE Federal Credit Union now operates far outside of the box serving over 12,000 members.
Our core values serve as the guiding principles that shape our culture, actions, and decisions. They’re our moral compass for how our team interacts with one another, our members, and our communities.
We value creativity because developing clever solutions demands outside-of-box thinking.
We value quality because we pursue excellence and are determined to find opportunity in every challange.
We value community because the people we serve and the places they live are connected and thrive together.
We value kindness because a gesture of goodwill has the power to make a person’s day brighter and make them feel a littler better.
ONE Federal Credit Union derives it name from the power concept of unity, symbolizing the collective strength of our community. Standing together as ONE, we illuminate the pathways to brighter futures for our friends and neighbors. With each member, volunteer, staff, and leader contributing their unique talents, we forge a cohesive force dedicated to uplifting every individual we serve. As ONE, we embody the spirit of solidarity and progress, fostering a community where everyone can thrive.
United in strength and collaboration, we stand resilient, ever ready to lend a helping hand. Our ethos is one of kindness and support, where every member, volunteer, staff, and leader works tirelessly to ensure the success of one another. Delivering transparent financial products and services, providing funding and support for community initiatives, and bringing people together are all significant pieces of how we help our members bank better.
Our commitment to our members starts with building lifelong relationships, and it continues with every interaction, creating smiles through all acts of service.
