In May 1945, a group of Islanders met over coffee to envision a different way of banking. It involved putting people's needs first and using local money to do local good. A year later, "Nanaimo & District Credit Union" was officially incorporated and opened for business with a small office in the corner of a bicycle shop.

Since those humble beginnings, Coastal Community has grown through mergers and acquisitions and implemented countless technological advances. Our co-operative values live on today through our vision and purpose statements along with our core values. These guide our actions to improve financial health for you and our communities.
