Rooted in Education. Growing with Our Community.

About Us

Become a Member

Since 1953, Benton County Schools Credit Union has been helping the people who keep our community running — from teachers and bus drivers to city staff and local employees — reach their financial goals.

We’re proud to be a local, not-for-profit credit union built on trust, service, and connection. When you bank with us, your money stays here, helping your neighbors and strengthening our schools, cities, and county.

Who We Serve

We were founded by educators, but today, our membership includes anyone who works for a school district, city, county, or public organization in Benton or Linn County — plus retirees, volunteers, and family members.

If you live or work in our community, you belong here.

Our Mission

To provide simple, honest financial solutions that put people first.

We believe banking should be easy to understand, fair, and focused on helping members succeed.
That’s why we offer:

  • Lower loan rates and fewer fees

  • Friendly, local service

  • Digital tools that make managing money simple

  • Support from real people — not automated systems

When you join BCSCU, you’re not just opening an account. You’re becoming a member-owner of a credit union that exists to serve you.

Our Story

Benton County Schools Credit Union began over 70 years ago when a group of local educators wanted a safe, affordable place to save and borrow. Their idea was simple: work together to build a stronger financial future.

That spirit of cooperation still drives everything we do today.
From new digital banking tools to community events and education programs, our goal remains the same — helping local people make confident financial choices.

Community Involvement

We’re more than a credit union — we’re part of Benton County. Our team supports local schools, scholarships, and community causes throughout the year.

You’ll find us volunteering at events, supporting fundraisers, and helping local employees manage their finances with confidence.

When our community succeeds, we all do.

Our Promise to You

We’ll always:

  • Listen first

  • Offer fair, transparent products

  • Provide the personal service only a local credit union can deliver

That’s the BCSCU difference — banking with heart, right here at home.
