Animas Credit Union (ACU) in Farmington, NM, has officially become part of Sunward as of July 1, 2021. Sunward is honored to welcome ACU’s 14,000-plus members into our Credit Union family, and to serve the members of our combined organization.
For existing Sunward members, there will be no change to systems and processes. They can continue to expect the same personalized level of service they have always received from Sunward.
Until consolidation of ACU systems and accounts into Sunward’s transactional system is complete (anticipated in mid-2022), ACU will be known as “Animas Credit Union, a Division of Sunward.”
WHY MERGE?
Sunward's Board of Directors believes that Sunward – and our members – are best served if we remain true to who we are, and lead with our commitment to serving our members and partner companies. This commitment includes an intention to enhance the Credit Union’s financial strength and membership diversity. We believe that the merger will allow us to generate greater financial returns to our members, increase our investment in new products and services, and continually enhance our technology to better serve our members.
