The common bond is the factor, which unites the members of the credit union. If you work or live in Lismore or Cappoquin or the surrounding area you are part of our common bond and eligible to join us.

Because of the common bond, all members have the good of their community at heart, they know and trust each other. The common bond ensures that the savings of members of the community are available to fellow members as loans. It also enables members to know each other and to make credit judgments on character and personal record rather than on commercial `risk’ factors.
