Global Credit Union in late January announced the grand opening of its newest branch, located inside the Eielson Exchange Shopping Center on Eielson Air Force Base.
The 300-square-foot Global Credit Union kiosk is the first of its kind, offering the full range of Global Credit Union services and convenient access to the servicemen and women who call Eielson Air Force Base home.
Credit Union Has Air Force History
“Global has a long history of providing credit union services to members of our military,” says Geoff Lundfelt, president and CEO of Global Credit Union. “In fact, the credit union was founded at the Alaska Air Depot in 1948. We could not be more excited to continue the tradition of serving those who serve this country.”
A grand opening ceremony took place on January 25 at the Eielson Air Force Base Exchange. Global members and members of the public were in attendance.
