A journey of dedication, economic emancipation, and cooperative progress built upon Methodism and community solidarity.
FCMCCU commenced in 1971, founded by the visionary local executives and members of the Sunyani Calvary Methodist Church. Guided by Christian principles of social piety and economic empowerment, they combined resources to establish a local cooperative society, enabling members to pool savings and access soft credits during tough seasons.
Over the decades, the union grew from a parish-only savings society to a certified community credit union. We formally affiliated with CUA (Credit Union Association of Ghana), established audit standards, and widened our membership boundaries to include farmers, market women, school managers, and traders across Fiapre.
To cater to modern commercial needs, we diversified our savings products. The introduction of business agricultural microfinance, school fee savings plans, and kiddy deposits drove membership beyond 5,000 active savers, establishing FCMCCU as a key pillar in the regional economy.
Today, FCMCCU serves over 10,000 members, utilizing secure digital banking solutions. Guided by CUA guidelines, we maintain the highest financial security standards while delivering consistent annual dividend payments to our cooperative shareholders.
