Sacramento Credit Union

History

Sacramento County Employees' Credit Union opened in 1935 in an abandoned church building located at 715 Seventh Street. Both quarters and staff were shared with the Southern Pacific Employees' Credit Union to reduce operating expenses. At the time, credit unions offered members the services of saving and borrowing money. By 1945, the SCU membership had grown to 289 members, and annual profits were reported as $458.00. In the early 1970s, property was purchased, and the present day main office was constructed at 800 H Street. The field of membership continued to grow, eventually extending beyond the County of Sacramento employment group, so the company changed its name to Sacramento Credit Union in 1985. Shortly thereafter, SCU was selected by the Sacramento Metro Chamber of Commerce to provide credit union services to their membership.
