Celebrating 75 Years of Sun Federal
In December of 1950, ten Toledo Sun Oil employees pooled their money together in a cigar box, marking the start of what would become Sun Federal Credit Union. Seventy-five years later, we’ve grown to heights those employees could never have imagined. With over 35,000 members across three states, our services are uplifting and investing in community members, businesses, and organizations. Above all, we’re carrying out the mission of the founding members by focusing on a member’s story above their credit score and making a difference for our members.
To kick off our next 75, we’re offering a: 4.00% APY2 11 Month Certificate Just for our members. It’s our way of saying thank you for letting us be part of your journey all these years.
