The credit union was organized and received its charter back in May of 1955 as the Big Island Businessmen’s Federal Credit Union. As the credit union grew we changed our charter to be a community credit union and our name evolved with us and we became known as JCC Federal Credit Union. Our continued growth into one of Hawai`i Island’s respected credit unions brought our final name change in June 2000. Further reflecting our vision for our members we are now known as CU Hawaii Federal Credit Union. Since that time our membership, assets, products, and services have grown making us the primary financial institution for many of our members.
