About Coosa Valley Credit Union
In 1954, nine General Electric of Rome employees had a vision of each one helping the other. From the humblest beginnings to a multimillion-dollar organization, Coosa Valley Credit Union has a history built on serving the hard-working people of the Coosa Valley Region.
Welcome to Coosa Valley Credit Union
"We Care" and "We Treat You Like Family" are two core values that differentiate us from banks and other financial institutions. Here we still do business like neighbors helping neighbors, an old fashioned approach that combines modern technologies and the warm professional service you deserve. Have a special need or unusual circumstance? We still listen.
We use our Core Values as a guide and constant reminder that we can always improve our members' lives. We don't charge more so that we can increase a line on a graph and we don't believe that revenue is most important. Coosa Valley Credit Union has a much higher purpose. Our purpose is simple: to help people in our hometown live better financial lives.
We provide financially responsible products that help better each and every one of our members' lives. Since we are a not-for-profit organization we can offer lower fees and lower lending rates because the shareholders we answer to are not on Wall Street. Our shareholders are you, our members, our neighbors.
If you live or have a business in the 13-county Coosa Valley area, including Bartow, Catoosa, Chattooga, Cherokee, Cobb, Dade, Floyd, Gordon, Haralson, Paulding, Polk, Walker and Whitfield Counties, you can open an account today.
We will continue to be kind, and look for ways to say yes.
It Started with $45
and a Cigar Box
In 1954, nine men had a vision of each one helping the other. These nine GE Company employees pooled their resources, depositing $5 each into a cigar box. Their cumulative $45 would help see each one through many a rainy day.
On May 7, 1954, the National Credit Union Administration granted a charter to the General Electric Employees of Rome Federal Credit Union. Since then, the credit union has grown and evolved to serve more people and communities throughout Northwest Georgia. Along with the growth of membership, the expansion of offices and change in charter, Coosa Valley Credit Union has changed in the scope of services offered. In addition to checking, savings and loan services for individuals, Coosa Valley Credit Union has added on-line banking, a mobile app, credit card services, ATMs and a full array of business services. Coosa Valley Credit Union is continuing as a visionary organization, constantly searching for ways to better serve members.
