A message from Board Chair Jagpaul Singh Sandhu

As a financial cooperative, our members decide who is elected to the Board of Directors of KCU and are encouraged to voice their opinion to credit union representatives, who will treat you like you own the place – because members do own it. This sets us apart from most other financial institutions. You will also find KCU believes being a good neighbor is more than a marketing opportunity: it is an obligation. Our growth is derived from reputation, not acquisition. On behalf of the Board of Directors of KCU, thank you for checking us out, and please come back again soon.

Jagpaul Singh Sandhu, Board Chair
