The Credit Union Difference

As a not-for-profit financial cooperative DuPont Goodrich Federal Credit Union is completely owned by its members. A democratically elected board of directors runs the credit union, with every member over the age of 18 having an equal vote. Since DuGood pays no stockholders, profits made are returned to members in the forms of higher dividend rates on deposits, lower interest rates on loans, and free or low cost services.

At DuGood we believe in the credit union philosophy of "People Helping People." As a community credit union we realize we have a social responsibility to the communities we serve. With membership extending to Jefferson, Hardin, Orange, and Jasper Counties, DuGood is involved in many community service functions, from continuous fundraising for charities to enhancing financial literacy by providing free financial management classes. These are just a few of the ways DuGood puts the "People Helping People" philosophy in action.
