Chartway Federal Credit Union is a credit union headquartered in Virginia Beach and is chartered and regulated under the authority of the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). Chartway FCU, a not-for-profit financial institution, has been serving members and families since 1959, building a service network that includes more than 50 branches and a full slate of online, mobile, and telephone banking services, including mobile deposit and mobile bill pay. Headquartered in Virginia Beach, VA, the $2 billion credit union proudly serves nearly 200,000 members. HeritageWest Credit Union, SouthWest Community, and Utah Central Credit Union joined the Chartway family of credit unions in 2010 and 2011. ==History== On September 4, 1959, seven civilian workers at the Norfolk Naval Air Station each invested $5.00 and incorporated NorVA N.A.S. Federal Credit Union. In October 1959, the organization that would later become Chartway Federal Credit Union was chartered. Its field of membership included civilian and military personnel, along with their family members. The charter also extended to employees of the credit union and their families. The main purpose of this new credit union was to provide low-cost loans and to provide a convenient place for its members to save in a more organized manner. In January 1965, NorVA N.A.S. reached its first milestone of $1 million in assets and over 3,000 members. In 1969, the credit union had an opportunity to further expand with the passage of government legislation that allowed credit unions to change its charters. Members would now be eligible for lifetime membership even if they left the qualifying field of membership. Because of this, the credit union was able to retain its members and open its membership to retired Navy department civilians. In April 1972, the credit union changed its name to the Naval Air Norfolk Federal Credit Union. It also merged with Radron Credit Union to expand its field of membership to include the Cape Charles Air Force Station and anyone in the military who used either base. In 1977, the credit union moved into what is now its headquarters at 160 Newtown Road in Virginia Beach, Virginia. In March 1983, the credit union changed its name again to Naval Air Federal Credit Union. In 1996, under the direction of President and CEO Ronald L. Burniske, the credit union became Chartway Federal Credit Union. Because there were branches in many different states, a much broader field of membership, and fewer ties to the military, the old name no longer seemed appropriate. According to Burniske, “Chartway” was chosen because “it reflected the members who brought us where we are today…and it reflected a dynamic new course for all of us.” In 2000, Chartway introduced its eBranch Internet Banking, which allowed members to manage their accounts online, pay their bills online, and receive electronic statements. By 2005, Chartway reached $1 billion in assets. During the mid-2000s Chartway partnered with local supermarket Farm Fresh Food & Pharmacy to provide financial services to grocery shoppers. As of 2010 Chartway has eighteen full service branches located in Farm Fresh supermarkets. (HeritageWest Credit Union ) and (SouthWest Community Credit Union ) joined the Chartway family in 2010. Utah Central Credit Union became part of the organization in 2011, and is now recognized as Chartway Federal Credit Union. Following 31 years of exemplary service, CEO Ron L. Burniske retired in 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chartway Federal Credit Union」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
