Our History

Renaissance Community Development Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative owned by its members. Renaissance CDCU was the second State chartered Credit Union in New Jersey. The Credit Union was chartered in 1996 as an extension of the First Baptist Community Development Corporation. Renaissance Community Development Credit Union is based on a "Common Bond," we serve several segments of the community: those who live, work, worship or attend school within the Renaissance Target Area. This area covers parts of Franklin Township and New Brunswick.

In June 2001 the U.S. Treasury Department certified Renaissance CDCU as a Community Development Financial Institution.



What is a Credit Union?
While other financial institutions need to generate profits in order to satisfy stockholders, Credit Unions are different. Credit union members pool their savings to make loans to each other. Credit Unions return excess earnings to its members in the form of dividends, low interest rates on loans and little or no fees for financial products and services.
