The History of the People’s Federal Credit Union

The People’s Federal Credit Union was federally chartered on January 12, 1953, as the Amarillo Pantex Credit Union. The first branch was at the Pantex plant, and it wasn’t until 1973 that TPFCU opened its first branch in Amarillo, TX. From there we’ve grown to over 23,000 members and five branches in Amarillo, Canyon, and Childress. We provide Texas residents with special programs and banking accounts designed to improve their financial position.

Board Of Directors

The Board of Directors is made up of nine unpaid volunteers and is elected by the membership at the Credit Union Annual Meeting. They are responsible to the members for the proper exercise of the authority delegated to them in the bylaws.

As provided in the bylaws, the Board controls the resources made available to management for the accomplishment of its tasks and is responsible for the general direction and overall control of the Credit Union. This responsibility is carried out in accordance with the Federal Credit Union Act rules and regulations, bylaws, and sound business and management practices modeled by the relevant government agencies.

Supervisory Committee

The Supervisory Committee consists of five persons appointed from the membership by the Board of Directors. These member representatives serve as the Credit Union’s internal auditing body. The Supervisory Committee performs duties as prescribed in the bylaws, which include examining the affairs of the Credit Union, auditing the books, presenting reports to the Board of Directors, and an annual report to the members.

membership requirements

Membership Requirements

Although the Credit Union only deals with persons who make up the field of membership, the foremost principle in its membership policy is to extend service to as many as are eligible.

A Credit Union should not try to become an exclusive organization to which only a privileged few people may belong. Rather, it should aim at becoming an organization that includes and helps as many people as it can.

As part of our membership eligibility promise, you can change employers, move, retire, get married, and never have to leave The People’s Federal Credit Union.

“Once a member, always a member.”

Markets We Service

Our underserved area includes all citizens who live, work, or worship in the city of Canyon, Childress, Hereford, parts of Amarillo, and Deaf Smith County. You will also qualify if a family member already has an account with us, or if you work for or retired from a company that we serve. It sounds complicated, but most people qualify for membership at TPFCU.

Member-Centric Banking

From our customer service to the way our bank accounts and products are set up, it’s easy to see that our main priority is providing members with everything they need to achieve their financial goals. As a member-owned credit union, we don’t prioritize the bottom lines of a board of shareholders with no interest in our customers. Instead, we put our members’ needs first.
