Your money does more than grow here. It gives back.

Credit unions are built differently. LMCU proves it every day.

When LMCU does well, that success doesn't go to shareholders. It flows back into the communities and members we serve, through the programs, people, and places you'll find on this page.

Where your membership shows up

LMCU focuses its community impact through four core areas. These priorities guide how we direct our giving, where we volunteer, and what we advocate for — because a credit union is only as strong as the communities it serves. 

  • Investing in education and opportunity 
  • Helping more people into homes 
  • Supporting health and well-being 
  • Building economic inclusion
