Group of happy people with 70 year anniversary logo

This year, Members First Credit Union of Florida is celebrating 70 years of People Helping People. Originally started as Escambia County Teachers Credit Union then later as Education Credit Union of Northwest Florida, we've grown to serve communities in Escambia, Santa Rosa, and Okaloosa Counties. While, a lot has changed in 70 years, our goals and desire to help our members achieve their financial dreams and goals remain the same. We thank you for putting your trust in Members First and our promise to bring financial well-being and inclusion to everyone. We're proud of what we've been able to achieve over the years and continue to work with our members and mission in mind, because it is through your success that we succeed.

To celebrate, we're rewarding our members with the gift of 70! Below are exclusive offers for our Platinum Jubilee celebration:
