In 1938, ten teachers pooled $60 to form Educators Credit Union. In the beginning, the credit union was named McLennan County Teachers Federal Credit Union, but was later changed to Educators Credit Union. In 2005, ECU expanded our membership to include anyone who lives, works, or attends school in McLennan, Bosque, Falls, Hill, Coryell or Lampasas counties. The education community is the foundation of our membership, but this expansion gave us the opportunity to serve everyone in the community, no matter their profession.
