Valley First Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative that is owned by our members. Unlike banks who are in business for their shareholders, we are in business for our members. The money earned by banks is paid out to a few shareholders. We give the money back to our members in the form of higher dividend rates on savings and lower loan rates.

Additionally, the money deposited by credit union members is in turn loaned out to other members, incorporating the "people-helping-people" philosophy.

You are eligible for membership with Valley First Credit Union if you live, regularly work, regularly worship or attend school in Fresno, Madera, Mariposa, Merced, San Joaquin, Stanislaus or Tuolumne County, if you are employed with an employer group specifically listed in the credit union's field of membership, or are an immediate family member of a Valley First Credit Union member.

Volunteers Beautified

The Ronald McDonald House

Valley First Credit Union partnered with United We Paint to fund the beautification of the Ronald McDonald House in Fresno serving Children's Hospital.  

Valley First Credit Union continued its tradition of helping the local community by joining Fresno resources to grant the wishes the Ronald McDonald House Charities.

On Saturday, May 17th, more than 70 volunteers volunteers participated throughout the community with Valley First Credit Union employees and members to paint, landscape, and participate in many activities to improve the livelihood of the families and staff of the Ronald McDonald House of the Central Valley.

Valley First Credit Union provided a light breakfast, lunch, snacks and beverages.

This project is only possible with the financial and employee contributions of Valley First Credit Union.
