Who We Are

At Pacific Crest, our mission is to provide our members and communities with the opportunity to prosper.
Who are we?
We’re the 19,000+ people of the Klamath Basin and surrounding rural communities: member-owners of a federal credit union that started in 1936, when ten mill workers founded Pacific Crest. We work hard to return a financial benefit to the communities we serve. Together, we’re expanding our horizons.
We believe in the kind of service that comes only through a local institution, where every single person is a member — not a number. Our staff have roots here, and we care about the people we work with, both as members of our credit union, and as members of our community.
So we listen with purpose. We bring creativity to challenges. We demonstrate integrity. And we deliver a structure of financial products and services to help our members explore the scope of what’s possible.

Notes from the trail
— Robert, member since 2017By far the friendliest group I’ve ever met in a bank. That’s what business is about: taking an interest in your customers, and treating them with respect.
We’re a credit union. We’re your community.

Reaching out
At Pacific Crest, we build partnerships and provide services designed to make a difference, while devoting hundreds of volunteer hours every year to good causes.

Giving back
We search for organizations that are making a positive impact in our communities, whose work has a ripple effect, and put our dollars where it means the most.

Paying it forward
To help deserving students make a difference, we offer four $1,000 annual scholarships inspired by board members who made a difference at Pacific Crest.
