Big Island Federal Credit Union was featured on another episode of HINow Daily to commemorate its 90th anniversary. It took a determined group of Big Island teachers with 30 dollars to form the very first credit union in Hawaii. Big Island Teachers Federal Credit Union was chartered on April 27, 1936. With membership now open to Big Island residents, the credit union is now Big Island Federal Credit Union.
Big Island Federal Credit Union marks 90 years as Hawaii's first credit union, built on a People Helping People philosophy since 1936.
