BayPort Credit Union – 1241 Frederick Blvd

BayPort Credit Union, established in 1928, is a nonprofit financial cooperative rooted in the Hampton Roads region of Virginia. Born from a group of Newport News Shipbuilding employees, its origins lie in providing low-interest loans and a trusted place to save, with a long-standing motto centered on people helping people. The organization has grown from a small shipyard-focused credit union to a multibranch financial cooperative serving individuals and local businesses across the Virginia Peninsula and Southside communities. Nearing a century of operation, BayPort operates a network of branches and digital services to support everyday financial needs, including deposits, loans, and basic financial education initiatives. The institution emphasizes community stewardship through its affiliated BayPort Foundation, which funds educational and social responsibility efforts within local districts and organizations. Its history reflects a commitment to resilience during challenging periods, including the COVID-19 era, while maintaining a focus on accessibility and member well-being. The Portsmouth location at 1241 Frederick Blvd situates BayPort within the coastal Virginia economy and daily life of the Portsmouth community.
