MariSol es una cooperativa de crédito Juntos Avanzamos. Estamos aquí para ayudar, nor importa de donde sea.
MariSol Federal Credit Union has been a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) since 2010. As a CDFI, MariSol focuses on its identity as a community leader for low- and moderate-income persons in Maricopa County. Our mission is to empower our members through financial inclusion by access to affordable and equitable solutions.
Our financial products and services are designed to promote economic opportunity and positively impact distressed communities. MariSol has been committed to that since 2005 when it began the process of adding distressed areas of Maricopa County to its field on membership and became a low-income designated credit union.
MariSol is committed to Board accountability to its membership through the representation of its target markets and representation that mirror the minorities served in our community and membership. MariSol Federal Credit Union is designated as a Minority Deposit Institution as of February 2024.
In 2010, MariSol received its Low-Income Destination from the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). We are proud of our outreach to underserved and low-income communities.
We teach financial education to multiple community organizations. We have even taught financial education in the Maricopa County Jails.
First, we believe that you are more than your credit score. Credit scoring is used for pricing only for our consumer loans. We have loan programs like our Quick Loan, Pay YourSelf mortgage, Citizenship loan, and business loans unique to us. We work with community partners like Local First Arizona and UPI Loan Fund for unique loan programs.
We have been located in downtown Phoenix since 1954. We lend here, work here and invest in our community. Unlike big corporate banks that answer to stockholders, MariSol supports our members by providing access to low-rate loans and a high yield on savings.
