Our Story
Here at ACU our own journey as a community-based credit union has continually evolved. What began with an effort to provide employees of IBM Kingston a financial cooperative almost 60 years ago has grown into one of the largest credit unions in New York State. The conversion to and subsequent expansion of a community charter have allowed us to include the counties of Ulster, Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Westchester, Sullivan and Rockland in our service area. Our ability to adapt to the needs of our members and the communities we serve, as well as our commitment to guiding their financial journeys, are rooted in our Guiding Principles. This roadmap allows ACU to navigate change and establish long-term sustainability while staying true to you, our members.
