Jose Garcia, President and CEO

Jose has been leading the way at NWCCU since 2012. Prior to that, he was a sixteen year credit union executive and former CFO of Advance Financial Federal Credit Union in Schererville, Indiana.
 

Over the course of his career, Mr. Garcia has developed a keen operational acumen with an emphasis on finance, technology and investment management. Jose’s personal style stems from the national credit union motto of “people helping people.”

“It motivates me to provide our membership with excellent member service while providing a variety of financial products that benefit members and their families. Ultimately, my goal is to always contribute to our members’ financial success. Our job every day is to make sure we’re giving our members a better direction in banking.”

Our History: Rooted In Community 

Northwest Community Credit Union (NWCCU) was born in the basement of Immaculate Conception Church in Chicago in 1939. We have grown over the decades and continue to support the credit union industry motto of “People Helping People.”
 

Today, our main office is located in Morton Grove, IL, and we are proud to be one of the few credit unions in the country with a branch in an educational institution—Chicago’s St. Xavier University.
 

Proud to be a part of a growing community, NWCCU a non-profit financial institution that serves thousands of local families, businesses, organizations and Select Employee Groups (SEGs). We provide a wide array of financial products and services with lower rates on loans and higher returns on deposits because we’re member-owned and not in business to make money for shareholders.
 

With advances in technology, security and financial offerings, our goal for the future is to continue to serve our members with superior products and friendly, personal service.
