It's easy. It's open to everyone.

And it's only $10 for life!

As a community development credit union, HOPE membership is not limited to any particular group or geography. Membership is open to both individuals and organizations that want to take advantage of our full range of products and services, from checking and savings accounts to personal, mortgage or business loans.

$5 of your $10 lifetime membership fee goes to the Hope Enterprise Corporation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, and is tax deductible.

Help yourself, while helping others. Your membership helps HOPE provide services to more underserved communities and individuals.

Join now.

1. Visit a HOPE branch to fill out a form, pay the $10, and open an account.
2. Or download and complete a membership application form (prints best on legal size paper). If you are opening an account for a business or an organization, you will also need to complete a corporate agreement. Then send it in with your membership fee and initial deposit.

Yes, it's as simple as that.
