Credit unions are not for profit. Credit union members share ownership of their credit union and have democratic control. They elect from their membership a volunteer Board of Directors, which appoints the Supervisory Committee that also serves without pay. All credit unions have a limited field of membership, meaning its members share something in common, such as where they work or live.
The current Board of Directors consists of: Jeff Anderson; Zeola Bellephant; Alma Birdsong; Jennifer Conn; Randall Degenhart; Marcia Dubbert, Patricia Geel, Maria Glasgow, Oachia Irvin, Marion Jackson, Jr. and Matthew Rusek.
A bit of history...
The KFTCU was started by 7 visionary teachers in 1956 as a financial cooperative to benefit the then 152 members of the Kankakee Federation of Teachers Local 886. The very first KFTCU financial report indicated that the total share balance held by the original 59 members was approximately $7000 and loans totaled $3800. Compare that to the current totals: 1000 members, a share balance over $5.5 million and total loans of almost $3.5 million!
Still have questions? Please contact us anytime! We look forward to hearing from you.
