Rooted in Huntsville. Invested in you.

CSCU has been part of Huntsville for over 70 years. Here’s how we show up for our neighbors, our schools and our community.

Community is how we got started.

Founded in 1954 by 55 Texas Prison System employees who pooled just over $10,000, CSCU is a not-for-profit cooperative with no shareholders. We return our earnings to members through lower loan rates, fewer fees, higher savings dividends and better service.

Supporting local schools and youth.

We support local schools and youth programs because a financially prepared community starts with its youngest members.
