Grand Junction Federal Credit Union was scheduled to reopen July 27 at a new and larger location at 633 24 Road.

“We are hoping that this new location will allow us to grow with our members, increase customer interactons and continue to provide the personalized service our members have become accustomed to,” said Gabriella Stockton, operations manager at Grand Junction Federal Credit Union.

The move follows the approval in January 2020 of an expanded charter that enabled Grand Junction Federal Credit Union to offer services to more customers.

Membership in the 64-yearold credit union previously required affiliations with particular employer groups or family connections to the member-run organization. The expanded charter removed those restrictions to extend membership to anyone who lives, works, attends school or worships in Mesa, Delta and Garfield counties.
