Who We Are

Our Purpose: To Build Relationships That Matter.

And we've been doing it since 1954, when five teachers started with $150 in a shoe box.

Committed to you and all members

Rooted in Southeast Louisiana

Invested in our communities

Providing good value and fair rates

Always focused on your financial needs

Humble beginnings, proud legacy

It all started in March 1954 when a handful of local teachers pooled a modest amount of money and chartered Baton Rouge Teachers Federal Credit Union. The goal was to support each other with low-cost loans and personalized service. More than a decade passed before the first office opened on South Foster Drive where one full-time employee and two part-time employees worked.

In the decades since, that credit union has changed names to Neighbors FCU and grown to more than over 80,000 members with over $1 billion in assets. But what will never change is our commitment to excellent service and accounts that help members reach their financial goals. 

Neighbors Capital Area Foundation

Neighbors FCU created the Neighbors Capital Area Foundation to financially support area non-profit organizations making a positive impact in our communities. Read more about all the Foundation's initiatives.
