We're celebrating 90 years of creating successful financial futures

Veridian was founded in 1934 in Waterloo, Iowa in the depths of the Great Depression. While banks were closing or forced to restrict lending, seven John Deere employees pooled their own money, five dollars each, to help give their coworkers access to the financial tools they needed.

“The story of our founding is important because it’s central to who Veridian is and the values that guide us today,” said Veridian President and CEO Renee Christoffer. “We’re still cooperatively owned by our members and for our members, not for profit.”

Join us in celebrating Veridian's 90^th anniversary with a schedule of giveaways, acts of kindness and community donations through the end of the year. 

Now through September 30, we're offering a chance to win $90.

On October 17, Veridian employees will celebrate International Credit Union Day with acts of kindness impacting 90 local organizations.

On December 3, the annual Veridian Gives Back for Giving Tuesday campaign will donate $90,000 to local organizations, more than doubling our annual Giving Tuesday donations.

Details on each anniversary activity, including special offers and more, are available at veridiancu.org/90.
