Core Values Because managing your finances is one of the most important things you do, your relationship with your financial institution needs to be a strong one. That is why AAFCU has adopted five Core Values to ensure that you, our member-owners, have the best possible experience when dealing with your financial matters.

Integrity Having trust in your credit union is of paramount importance to us. The integrity of a financial institution starts with accuracy and honesty. That is why we employ a full-time internal auditor that reports to the Supervisory Committee, an independent oversight committee. We are also regularly audited by the National Credit Union Administration, a federal regulatory body. We report any findings as well as our financial standing in the Annual Report, and we update our financial standing in each "Leading Edge" quarterly newsletter.

Innovation Delivery of banking services has changed radically over the last decade, and continues to change at a rapid pace. We are committed to bringing you the latest innovations in banking technology to save you time and money. We also feel innovation goes beyond mere technology. We pledge the technological innovation we bring to you will be backed by this and our other core values.

Outreach  We feel we have a responsibility to strengthen the communities in which we operate. We continually strive to utilize our unique position in the community to offer financial education to students of all ages, including our adult members. We teach these skills with the intention that they will be used lifelong. A better educated community is a stronger community, especially when it comes to financial matters. We also remain committed to donating time and money to worthy local charities.
