Founded in 1955 in Tampa, Florida, Grow Financial Federal Credit Union began when a group of civilian employees at MacDill Air Force Base came together to provide fair and trustworthy financial services to service members and their families. Starting with a broom closet as their first office, they built a credit union rooted in community and service.
Over the decades, the organization expanded beyond its military origins, serving communities across West Central Florida and in Columbia and Charleston, South Carolina. Today, Grow Financial offers a comprehensive range of personal and business financial services, staying true to its founding mission: to serve people, not profit.
The credit union emphasizes community impact through financial literacy, support for local nonprofits, and expanding access to underserved communities. It fosters a team culture focused on growth, collaboration, and service, having been recognized as a Top Workplace by the Tampa Bay Times and Fortune Magazine.
