Hawaiian Electric Employees Federal Credit Union – 770 Kapiolani Blvd #514

Hawaiian Electric Employees Federal Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative established to serve employees and associates connected with the Hawaiian Electric Companies and their broader community. Its origins trace back to the late 1930s when the organization began as a small members’ initiative, evolving over decades into a formal credit union focused on member-driven financial services. The institution operates with a field of membership centered on its sponsoring employer and affiliated groups, offering core services typical of credit unions such as savings and checking accounts, loans, and member education resources, all guided by a philosophy of serving the needs of its members rather than pursuing profit. Historically, the entity reflects the broader pattern of labor-based credit unions in Hawaii, transitioning from a grassroots formation to an established cooperative with a dedicated staff and governance structure. Its primary functions include daily financial operations for members, loan underwriting, and financial literacy initiatives, supported by an educational center that provides resources and guidance to improve members’ financial well-being. The credit union’s geographic and organizational scope remains anchored in serving its member base associated with Hawaiian Electric and related employer communities, while maintaining compliance with federal credit union regulations and cooperative principles.
