Financial Services, Banks, Credit Unions
The Family Credit Union has been proudly serving members since 1935. Originally founded as Kohrs Credit Union in Davenport, Iowa, we soon became Oscar Mayer Credit Union when the company acquired Kohrs. With just two employees working under a stairwell, we began serving plant workers with personalized, people-first service.
As our membership grew, so did our footprint. We opened a second location at the Perry Oscar Mayer plant and launched the Kirby Kangaroo Club for kids in the 1970's, planting the seeds of lifelong financial education. The 1980s brought a major milestone: we became the first credit union in Iowa to adopt a community charter and officially became The Family Credit Union.
Over the year, we've continued to grow through new branches and strategic mergers, expanding into Illinois and Nebraska. From teller-less branches to refreshed digital tools, we're always evolving to meet our members' needs.
Today, under the leadership of President/CEO Mike Brandt, we remain focused on our mission: people helping people. Whether you're just starting out or planning for the future, we're here to support every stage of your financial journey- with family at the heart of everything we do.
