Who We Are
At Resource One Credit Union, we help hard-working Texans achieve their financial goals. We are a Credit Union, owned by our members and working to give them control of their future.
Since 1936, our members have trusted us to provide honest advice and the products they need. And our earnings? They belong to our members. We share the profits with our members in the form of better rates and lower fees. Our membership continues to grow from the two largest counties in Texas: Dallas and Northwest Harris.
People helping people is what credit unions were founded on, and it’s what we live and breathe at Resource One. We like to help people in every way…from a member’s first loan to the energy and enthusiasm we bring to each and every member we serve. We’re not your average financial institution and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
We Help Our Members Achieve Their Financial Goals
Who We Serve
Live or Work
Resource One Credit Union membership is available to anyone who lives or works in Dallas or Northwest Harris counties or within a 10-mile radius of our Carrollton branch.
Family
You may also be eligible for membership if a family member is a current member of Resource One Credit Union. Even if you change jobs, retire, or move away, you can retain your membership with its benefits for as long as you maintain your account(s) in good standing.
Our success is due, in part, to our strong focus on member benefits. Potential offerings are evaluated by our Board of Directors based on overall benefit to the membership and impact to earnings. New products and services must meet strict criteria of quality, competitive pricing, and the ability to enhance credit union earnings and “give back” to members.
The Credit Union Difference
The Credit Union Movement is forever for the member – in what we offer today, in the changes we make to prepare for the future, and in the way we treat people everyday through every interaction.
Removing the Burden
Financial burdens are a reality in life, but a financial institution should not be one of them. At the heart of the Credit Union Movement is a desire to help, to guide and to actually listen. Our goal is to delight and surprise our members by providing realistic solutions, financial education and ways to make their lives easier.
Championing Humanity
Whether it’s the members we serve or the communities we support, Credit Unions put humanity first. Our members are people, not assets. We look for opportunities to help rather than risks to avoid. And above all else, we believe in doing what is right – not for profit, not for shareholders, but for the good of our members, our employees, and our community.
Advancing Achievement
Goals and dreams are personal. Credit Unions treat every member as an individual, and, regardless of their unique definition of success or their current circumstances, we help build and clear the path toward achievement. We empower, equip, and coach each member toward personal growth and accomplishment.
Inspiring Confidence
Trust is as powerful as it is delicate. The Credit Union Movement seeks to inspire confidence in its members by giving them a view of transparent operations and ownership in the organization. We do not expect our members to trust us; we strive to earn that trust with every interaction, through every service, every day.
R1CU History
July 15, 1936
A small group of employees from Catalog Order Plant of Sears, Roebuck, and Company came together to organize a credit union. Originally founded as the Sears Dallas Employees Federal Credit Union, this tight-knit group of employees had a vision of providing a safe place to save and get loans at fair rates.
Resource One Credit Union Through the Years
From this modest start, Resource One Credit Union increasingly expanded products, services and digital capabilities while still maintaining a low-cost business model. Through the decades, we continued to grow through innovation and responsive member care and service.
Our success is due, in part, to our strong focus on member benefits. Potential offerings are evaluated by our Board of Directors based on overall benefit to the membership and impact to earnings. New products and services must meet strict criteria of quality, competitive pricing, and the ability to enhance credit union earnings and “giveback” to members.
