No matter its growth, the credit union remains true to its mission of serving police officers and their families’ financial needs – from borrowing products that facilitate borrowing, promote thrift and encourage wise money management; to offering competitive products which facilitate borrowing while encouraging thrift.
Vision Values & Mission
Chicago Patrolmen’s Federal Credit Union began as a blue shirt organization open only to Chicago-area officers and their immediate family members in 1938, later expanding nationwide to meet financial needs of police officers and their families.
Chicago Patrolmen’s has developed close ties with members of the National Fraternal Order of Police, which allows it to offer products and services directly to sworn police officers throughout the nation through local chapters known as lodges. Furthermore, Chicago Patrolmen’s has increased its reach through strategic partnerships and co-op shared branching agreements with other police credit unions.
Even as its membership expands, the Credit Union remains true to its original mission of meeting the financial needs of law enforcement families, and this strategy has proven itself by increasing steadily over time.
