HistorySUN Credit Union was originally started by the employees of the City of Hollywood, as Hollywood Municipal Employees Credit Union. We were chartered by the State of Florida in 1946, and are a NOT-FOR-PROFIT financial cooperative organized to provide our members with low-cost financial services. We are governed by a volunteer board of directors who are elected by and from the membership. When you open a savings account you are acquiring ONE SHARE of the Credit Union which makes you a Member-Owner (not just a customer like at a bank). All profits of the Credit Union are returned to our Member-Owners in the form of dividends, low cost loans, high yield savings, and low or no fee services. We strive to meet the needs of our membership by providing new products and services that exceed your expectations, thereby becoming your primary financial institution.
