Introduction Our History: Section 705 FCU began in 1968, in Crowley, La led by a group of Postal Employees seeking to fill a void in their financial affairs. This group charted Section 705 FCU to serve postal employees in the 705 zip code area. However, through the years this charter was expanded to include federal government employees in the same area. Section 705 FCU is a full service financial institution that over the years has come to offer a variety of financial products and services for the full benefit of the membership. Our facility includes a full service drive-thru along with a friendly and knowledgeable nine employee staff. As of January 2007, we stand at over 3,000 members strong, rated a 5-star credit union, and is considered one of the strongest financial institutions in the country. We have since added additional selective employee groups, which is a direct correlation to our strong sense of service and loyalty to our membership. From checking and share (savings) accounts to a wide variety of loan products and benefits, we have proven to be an effective competitor in the financial market.
Interests Meeting the needs of our members, providing financial advice, and spreading the word about the credit union movement!
