Our History

We have been in San Francisco since 1954, but you may not know how we got here. Our story starts with an accountant who wanted to provide financial security to his colleagues. That accountant, George Trelut, hoped to provide a responsible financial institution for his fellow city employees- a place for them to obtain affordable loans, save money safely, and gain a voice in their own financial experiences. Today, we continue to pursue and foster those same ideals.

Our Credit Union Difference

San Francisco Federal Credit Union is a not-for-profit, member-owned financial institution. As a not-for-profit, we can offer higher earnings or dividends on deposit accounts, lower interest rates on loans and fewer fees than with the big banks. Plus, say goodbye to ATM fees, because credit union members have access to more than 29,000 free ATMs across the country.
