UNCLE Credit Union has been serving the Tri-Valley and Central Valley for over 60 years and remains a top provider for financial services. Founded and headquartered in Livermore, California, UNCLE was initially founded as a financial institution to primarily serve Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory employees. Currently, UNCLE Credit Union welcomes any individual living, working, attending school or regularly worshipping in Alameda, Contra Costa, San Joaquin, and Stanislaus Counties to join the membership.

UNCLE Credit Union is dedicated to its members and their financial well-being, while providing secure, competitive, and effective financial services. In the day and age of technology, UNCLE stays up-to-date with the latest improvements and has just launched a state-of-the-art digital banking platform to suit their members’ ongoing digital needs. The new digital banking platform features new and informative tools such as credit score reporting, enhanced security and more.

Within the past six months, UNCLE was able to provide more than $974,000 in small business loans through the Paycheck Protection Program. This type of funding is imperative to keep the local businesses up and running, especially during unprecedented times brought on by a world-wide pandemic. Other ways UNCLE has served its members during this time is offering new products and services specific to the pandemic. These services included: informational webinars, loan re-payment assistance, financial counseling, and more. While also providing additional services to its members, UNCLE also adopted many protocols to limit closure of in-branch service, as suggested by the CDC to protect members and employees as they continue to conduct business as usual.

UNCLE strives to be the first choice for exceptional financial services and has recently been voted “Best Credit Union” in the East Bay for a fourth year in a row. To learn more about UNCLE or to become a member, please visit: www.unclecu.org.
