Info

Located in Rome, Georgia, Northwest Georgia Credit Union is a financial cooperative that is owned by its members. Unlike other financial institutions, credit unions are not-for-profit and exist to serve members with low-cost consumer financial products and warm, personal service. Founded by a small group of teachers in 1961, the credit union opened its doors as Floyd County Teachers Federal Credit Union to serve educators of Floyd County Schools, Rome City Schools, and Coosa Valley Technical College. As word spread about the benefits of credit union membership, a growing number of business, organizations, and private schools also began to offer membership as a benefit to employees and their families. The name was officially changed to Northwest Georgia Credit Union in the 1980s to better reflect the field of membership. Led by President Cheryl Huffman, Northwest Georgia Credit Union currently serves approximately 100 employee groups in the Greater Rome community. With our hearts and our roots in education, Northwest Georgia Credit Union's priority is helping our members strengthen their financial direction to become even more savvy and secure.
