About The Company
The Atlantic Federal Credit Union was founded in 1935 by a group of AT&T Western Electric employees in Kearny, N.J. They were dedicated to building a not-for-profit financial cooperative to meet their savings and borrowing needs -- an especially formidable task in that depression era. Over the years, we've grown from a one company credit union to one of the larger credit unions in New Jersey. The cooperative spirit among our founders that marked our early beginnings continues today. We take pride in providing outstanding financial services to our members at the lowest possible cost.
