About Us

Our history is as rich as South Texas.

On January 4, 1937, Missouri Pacific Kingsville Employees Federal Credit Union was granted a charter to become a credit union for the railroad employees of South Texas, and thus, our story began. In August 1966, the credit union charter was amended to change our name to Missouri Pacific Employees (Kingsville Division) Federal Credit Union, and in January 1971, all member accounts became federally insured by the National Credit Union Administration.

In December 1978, the charter was amended for the third time, changing our name to Kingsville Community Federal Credit Union with the purpose of serving railroad employees and Kingsville area residents. In 1979, Kingsville Kleberg County Government Employees Federal Credit Union was merged with KCFCU, adding 437 new members to our credit union family.

The City of Kingsville employees and Kleberg Memorial Hospital employees, now Christus Spohn Hospital Kleberg, have joined our credit union and are a part of our family of members. With the name change, Kingsville Community Federal Credit Union was open for membership to "all who live, work, or attend church in our community."

Following NCUA's approval of charter expansion, in May 2016, the Board of Directors passed an amendment to change the name of the credit union to Texas Community Federal Credit Union.
