REGINA, SASKATCHEWAN--(Marketwire - Oct. 17, 2012) - During International Year of Co-operatives, Saskatchewan credit unions are proud to celebrate 75 years of serving the people and communities of Saskatchewan.
On August 2, 1937, the first Saskatchewan credit union, Regina Hebrew Savings and Credit Union, was incorporated. This was followed in the same year by the creation of Moose Jaw Credit Union, Star-Phoenix Savings and Credit Union, Sherwood Credit Union, Regina Wheat Pool Employees' Savings and Credit Union and Sacred Heart Parish Savings and Credit Union. Although the Regina Hebrew Savings and Credit Union eventually closed its doors, the others went on to amalgamate and still exist under different names.
