Trailhead Credit Union

Trailhead Credit Union We are a financial institution that serves those who live, work, or attend school in Multnomah Count That’s why we’re here. We are a cooperative of the eclectic.

This is not the cookie-cutter, same-as-a-million-others place to bank. Trailhead Federal Credit Union was founded in 1935 when eleven employees from Portland Gas and Coke decided to pool their money to form a financial cooperative. These founding members encouraged other gas company employees to deposit their money into the Credit Union so that their co-workers who needed to borrow, could do so at

a reasonable rate. Unlike a bank, the profits of Trailhead are returned to our members in the form of better rates and lower fees. We live in a city where individuals lead the way – where your financial goals are as unique and varied as the bicycles, beverages and social causes of our hometown, Portland OR. We’re proudly different – ever adapting to the changing needs of our community and your financial goals. This is banking for you. Additionally, we have two amazing branch locations. Our newest gem, is nestled in the distinctive, urban neighborhood of Portland’s North Mississippi Avenue, and is the first and only financial institution in this vibrant and eclectic area.
