Desert Schools Federal Credit Union was founded in 1939 by 12 teachers, each of whom invested five dollars into the newly formed credit union.
Darien Rowayton Bank was founded by leading local business people to provide our community with an exceptional combination of competitive banking services and thoughtful personal service. We carefully lend your deposits to support the growth of local businesses and to meet the needs of community members for financing worthy purposes from housing to education. Our focus on communities in Connecticut means we have avoided the types of loans and investments that underlie the current financial industry crisis and can continue to meet the credit needs of our community. We are committed to long-term relationships and offer the conveniences and financial services you expect from a larger bank, with the incredible rates, safety, and personal attention you won’t find anywhere but home.
