Who is Blue?

Our Story

Warren Federal Credit Union was chartered in 1951 by a group of civilian personnel at F.E. Warren Air Force Base

in Cheyenne, WY. Over the course of 65 years, Warren established roots and built trust with military and community

members and their families in Wyoming, Colorado, and throughout the world. Beginning a similar journey more than

50 years ago, Community Financial Credit Union was chartered to serve the financial needs of employees at the Rocky

Flats Environmental Technology site and later merged with Boulder Municipal Employees Credit Union and expanded

their service to Broomfield and the surrounding communities.

Understanding the highly competitive Front Range financial marketplace, an environment of

increasingly complex financial regulation, and the necessity of timely and well-considered

growth, the Board of Directors of Warren and Community Financial approved a plan to

merge in October 2015. The merger of these two established credit unions to become

Blue Federal Credit Union created the possibility for a new beginning and promised new

opportunities.

At the start of 2020, the acquisition of two Liberty Savings Bank branch locations was

announced. Liberty, long thought of as a financial institution committed to lifelong

relationships with members, was a perfect fit to help Blue expand into new communities. Blue acquired nearly $100 million in deposits, over 2,000 new members and two physical

branch locations in Denver and Granby, Colorado.

The Beginning of Blue

We have always, and will continue to, look ahead at what is possible; all the

while honoring and reflecting on where we have been. As we celebrate 70 years

of being in business in 2021, this continues to ring true. We have over 100,000 members worldwide, 18 physical branch locations, and over $1.5 billion in

assets. In 2021 we also officially moved into our brand new World Headquarters

in the heart of Cheyenne, a building that represents a culmination of 70 years of

growth.

Blue is a one-of-a-kind credit union that puts our members, employees, and

communities at the center of service delivery and innovative products. We look

forward to continued growth for decades to come as we discover pathways to

realize our members’ possibilities. 2030 Master Plan
