For over 80 years the people of our communities have been helping each other make dreams come true. In 1932, 11 El Paso civil servants pooled $5 each to form a credit union. Today GECU is the largest and one of the strongest locally-owned financial institutions in the city we call home with more than 340,000 members, 18 branches, and over $2 billion in assets. Becoming a GECU member is easy. You can join if you live or work in El Paso County, Hudspeth County or Doña Ana County not more than 25 miles from our 1500 North Resler Branch. To establish your membership, you must open, deposit and maintain $20 in a GECU Share Account. That represents your share in GECU.
