Our Story
Cascade Community Credit Union began as DougCo Schools Credit Union in 1948— a credit union for the educators of Douglas County.
This small charter was made up of 15 educators who kept the sum of their assets in a shoebox locked in a closet.
Starting as an institution of educators shaped our values to this day, our priorities lie in helping our community make informed decisions best for their needs. Those educators also created a culture that believed serving locally is how we help our community grow.
Over the years, we began to serve Douglas County as a whole and merged with other institutions to form Cascade Community Credit Union. Our name changed, but our ideals never did. We continue to serve you as a financial institution and by supporting our community— teachers, farmers, ranchers, business members, and the families that call Douglas County home and it all started with 15 teachers and a shoebox.
How is a Credit Union different from a bank?

- Lower interest rates
- More attractive loan terms
- Less fees
