Roy F. Bergengren (June 14, 1879– November 11, 1955) was an American attorney and pioneer of the United States credit union movement. Hired by Edward Filene in July 1921 to head the Credit Union National Extension Bureau,〔Kirkpatrick, Gabriel. (Launching the Credit Union Movement. ) ''Credit Union National Association.''〕 Bergengren carried out an ambitious legislative agenda that resulted in the enactment of the Federal Credit Union Act, the creation of the Credit Union National Association (CUNA), and the foundation of thousands of credit unions across the United States. ==Early career== Bergengren was trained as an attorney and in 1914 was elected the Commissioner of Finance in Lynn, Massachusetts.〔McDermott, William F.; Crissey, Forrest. (Three Million Amateur Bankers. ) ''The Rotarian.'' May 1942.〕 He participated in World War I and was largely unsatisfied with his poverty law practice prior to meeting Edward Filene, a successful Massachusetts businessman and champion of credit unions. In 1920, Bergengren was hired to manage the Massachusetts Credit Union Association where he promoted the development of credit unions. Massachusetts chartered 19 new credit unions in the following year. Filene found in Roy Bergengren the key organizer he needed to spearhead the credit union movement in the United States. Together with Filene, Bergengren founded the Credit Union National Extension Bureau in 1921 to work towards establishing credit union laws in all states and at the federal level. Filene poured more than $1 million of his own money into the project.
