LaPorte Community Federal Credit Union has been serving in the community since 1937 when it began as The Allis Chalmers Credit Union. Membership was composed solely of Allis Chalmers workers and their families. Credit union business was conducted in a small office located inside the Allis Chalmers plant. As times, neighborhoods and employment opportunities changed, so did the membership and location of the credit union. Membership has now expanded to include all of LaPorte County and the credit union has full service locations in both LaPorte and Michigan City.
