OUR STORY
Here at MHV our own journey as a community-based credit union has continually evolved. What began with an effort to provide employees of IBM Kingston a financial cooperative almost 60 years ago has grown into one of the largest credit unions in New York State. The conversion to and subsequent expansion of a community charter have allowed us to include the counties of Ulster, Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Westchester, Sullivan and Rockland in our service area.
Our ability to adapt to the needs of our members and the communities we serve, as well as our commitment to guiding their financial journeys, are rooted in our Guiding Principles. This roadmap allows MHV to navigate change and establish long-term sustainability while staying true to you, our members.
Our Core Values are the framework within which we undertake our journey. Our staff and management lean on these clearly-defined values to guide their daily work and their longer-term planning.
Together, our Guiding Principles and Core Values are the foundation of our culture and our member service.
