Our Story (1952 → Today)
Chartered on July 17, 1952, STTFCU began as a community credit union built on the simple idea that we’re stronger together. In the early 1960s, we faced high delinquency and transitioned to a Selected Group Charter, which was a turning point in our history.
In 1963, Allen A. Canton joined STTFCU, becoming President in 1965 and serving for more than 45 years. Under his leadership, we strengthened operations, weathered challenges and served more members than ever before.
In June 1973, a fire destroyed our offices at Drake’s Passage. Our team and members worked tirelessly to reconstruct records and keep services going. Through our development stages, we called many places home:
Drake’s Passage
Second Floor of Kentucky Fried Chicken (Waterfront)
Third Floor of People’s Bank Building
Christian Building at Market Square
Today, we’re proud to serve from our own building at 5027 Norre Gade—now known as the Allen A. Canton Building—still guided by the philosophy of members helping members.
