Celebrating Our Members

We are celebrating 90 Years of community, connection and financial empowerment.


Ninety years ago, The Atlantic Federal Credit Union was founded by a group of AT&T Western Electric employees in Kearny, New Jersey. What started as a small, community-rooted credit union has grown into a trusted financial partner for generations of families, neighbors and local businesses. Our mission is quite simple: meeting the financial goals and objectives of our Members and the communities we serve today and tomorrow. We are proud to make a difference in the lives of our Members who live and work in Essex and Union counties.


Thank you for helping our financial cooperative thrive!
