Credit Unions are financial co-operatives owned by their members, and as such, can accept only groups for membership. These can be employee groups, Church groups, or any group of individuals such as social clubs and athletic clubs. Once a group is accepted, family members of the persons in that group also become eligible for membership. If any group wishes to inquire about their eligibility for membership in the Buffalo Fire Dept Federal Credit Union, Feel free to contact me at 716-874-7284. I would be glad to discuss your options.
