Forrit Credit Union
Share
In this world that’s all too often obsessed with the big, we’d like to make a case for small. That’s us. We’re Forrit Credit Union. And we’re proudly small.
Forrit Credit Union was created in 1936 as Portland Federal Employee's Credit Union. 45 founding members came together with the credit union philosophy of ‘people helping people' to form a financial cooperative that could help provide them with personalized banking solutions. The resulting credit union's mission — Forward Together. Each Member. Each Moment.— we view every moment as an opportunity to grow, and we won’t stop making tomorrow a better place for our members. Today, Forrit Credit Union continues to serve our members with a full spectrum of financial services. We provide our members with anytime-anywhere online and mobile banking, personal one-on-one service, 24-hour phone access, plus access to thousands of ATMs and shared branches. When you become a member of Forrit, you're joining a member-driven, proudly-Portland, and 100% cooperative credit union in the Pacific Northwest. Being Forrit means we dive right in and get to work on enhancing the financial well-being of our members. We’re not only here to help our members arrive at their desired goals, but to do it with excitement!

Is it a scary good deal? Or just SCARY! 👻
Halloween shopping can be expensive, which makes a huge discount very tempting! However, scammers know that too. 🎃
In our recent blog post, we break down how fake online stores, misleading social media ads and suspiciously cheap costumes and decorations can turn a spooky-season bargain hunt into a financial horror story. 😱

Summer is best when we spend it with YOU! 🌞🥳
As summer comes to an end, we’re taking a moment to look back on some of the incredible moments we spent out in the community with you! 🙏
😎 Celebrating the start of summer
We kicked off the season by supporting School’s Out for Summer, a community gathering hosted by the City of Gresham - Government that focuses on celebrating the end of the school year with students in our community.
🧑🌾 Supporting our local markets
Throughout the season, we had the opportunity to celebrate local farmers, artisans, and business owners with the Rockwood Community Market at Rockwood Market Hall and the Adelante Mujeres Community Market in Cornelius.
🧑🏫 Bringing financial education to the community
Even while students were out of the classroom, the learning didn’t stop! We brought financial education to the community through two Bite of Reality workshops with Latino Network.
🎨 Uplifting the community one art piece at a time
We were proud to support our friends at Blanchet House and Farm for their On the Ledge Art Show, which helps generate funding for services supporting the houseless community while also celebrating the talented local artists who generously donated their work.
🥳 Celebrating our Latine community
Coming together to celebrate community, connection, and culture. We got to spend time with our neighbors in Washington County at the Latino Community Festival.
📚 Helping students get resources for back-to-school
Getting students ready to head back-to-school in style with a Community Kermés & Resiliency Fair! We attended a wonderful block party put on by our friends at Community Services Network, Latino Network, Boys & Girls Club of America, Open School, and CareOregon.
🎊 Rocked the Block with our Gresham community
To round out the summer, we joined our friends at the City of Gresham to pack school supply kits that were distributed to students at Rock the Block. We loved getting to help kick off the school year with our Gresham community!
Did you know this? Because I didn’t? 💡
