More than a Credit Union

Galaxy, a community credit union, was established in 1940 by 12 Joy Mining employees. We honor these men with the 12 stars in our logo. Our original charter under Joy Federal Credit Union was signed on 10/14/1940. We changed our name to Galaxy Federal Credit union in 1993 and moved to our current location in 1995. We became a community credit union in 2002. Our services are available to anyone that lives, works, volunteers, worships, or attends school in Venango county and all of their immediate family members.

Our history

At the end of 1940, our total membership was 55 members with assets of $695 and loans of $512. Today, we have almost 5,000 members, our assets are at $60 million and we have outstanding loans of $28 million. We have granted loans of over $277 million dollars since 1940!
