Certified CDFI

WWFCU DESIGNATED AS A CERTIFIED CDFI

We’re proud to say that Wayne Westland Federal Credit Union has received the prestigious designation of a Certified Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) from the U.S. Department of the Treasury. We received this honor because we’re dedicated to providing affordable and fair financial services to meet the needs of economically disadvantaged individuals and underserved communities.

CDFIs invest in local communities and their residents by providing critically-needed financing. For us to be a certified CDFI, we need to promote community development, provide financial products and services, serve one or more defined low-income target markets, maintain accountability to the community we serve, and be a legal non-governmental entity. This means we’re part of a national network promoting economic growth in America's underserved communities by financing businesses, creating jobs and rebuilding neighborhoods.
