Committed to a strong credit union system

In January 2023, Grand Forks District Savings Credit Union joined the Gulf & Fraser credit union family following a positive member vote . We chose Gulf & Fraser for their progressive style, their emphasis on employee satisfaction and their advanced tools and technology - and most importantly - their commitment to a strong BC credit union system. In years prior, GFCU Savings had often collaborated with Gulf & Fraser, building a trusted relationship. We recognized we shared similar cooperative values and synergies. Today, we are happy to be one credit union, here to serve our members for generations to come.
