Who We Are

Legacy’s vision is simple: We Craft Financial Solutions.

We do this with low fees for our services, competitive loan rates, and helpful advice whenever it’s needed. Every day, in every way, you can count on us as a partner in making the most of your money.

About Legacy

Legacy opened its doors as University Credit Union in 1955 to serve the UAB community. After serving the education and healthcare industries for more than 50 years, we expanded our field of membership to include the 10-county Greater Birmingham Metropolitan Area, changing our name to Legacy Community Federal Credit Union at the beginning of 2006. So if you live, work, worship, or attend school in Jefferson, Shelby, Blount, St. Clair, Walker, Chilton, Bibb, Coosa, Cullman, or Talladega counties, you’re eligible for membership.

Membership

If you have $5 to open a share (savings) account and are eligible through our field of membership, you can become a member (not a customer) of a unique financial institution. Legacy is a not-for-profit, member-owned cooperative that is committed to providing our members with the BEST financial services available at the lowest cost. To become a member, visit a branch or apply online.

Annual Report

Each year, the credit union reports on our financial status. Think of it as an annual “checkup” on the health of the credit union. The report is presented at our annual meeting, typically held in early spring.
