How is SH Federal CU different from SHCU?
Both credit unions are federally insured and affiliated under the “Self-Help” umbrella, but one is state chartered and the other is federally chartered. And while both have the same mission of creating and protecting ownership and economic opportunity, they focus on different programs: • Deposits in SH Federal CU will fund our efforts to offer responsible financial service alternatives to underbanked consumers, initially in California. • Deposits in Self-Help Credit Union fund responsible home, business and non-profit loans at reasonable rates to individuals, communities and entrepreneurs.
