NWCCU is a member owned, not-for-profit financial institution built for the community.

We’re proud that we’ve been a non-profit, member-owned financial institution since 1939. First organized by members of Immaculate Conception Church, our community credit union has grown into a multimillion dollar co-operative. Since then, our original charter has stayed the same: To support individuals, families and businesses in our community by living the credit union philosophy of “people helping people.”

 

Through the years, our field of membership has grown to include many businesses and local parishes as well as individuals who live and work in Lake, Will and Suburban Cook County. We also serve the communities of Saint Xavier University and Special Olympics Illinois. 

 

Today, we continue to grow along with our members by offering friendly, personal service, competitive rates and convenient 24/7 technology.
