The credit union was founded in 1953 as Moody Air Force Base Federal Credit Union, originally serving base employees and their immediate families. It has since changed its name and charter and grown from a single branch office on base to eight branch offices serving more than 26,000 members. As a not-for-profit financial institution, it reinvests profits back into the credit union to offer members products, services, and rates, and anyone who opens an account becomes a member-owner.
