First Northern Credit Union

Founded in 1962 as the State of Illinois Employees Credit Union of Northern Illinois, the institution rebranded to First Northern Credit Union in 1983. It operates as a not-for-profit, member-owned financial cooperative, meaning its profits are returned to members in the form of lower loan rates, higher savings rates, and fewer fees. The credit union is dedicated to providing its members with a full range of financial products and services, including checking and savings accounts, personal loans, mortgages, and investment services, while focusing on community support and financial well-being.
