CommunityAmerica Credit Union is a leading not-for-profit, member-owned financial institution headquartered in Lenexa, Kansas, dedicated to helping individuals and businesses achieve financial peace of mind at every stage of life. Founded in 1940, CommunityAmerica has grown into one of the nation’s largest credit unions, serving hundreds of thousands of members with a full suite of financial products and services — from everyday checking and savings to loans, mortgages, retirement planning, and wealth management. As a cooperative, profits are returned to members through competitive rates, low fees, and an annual Profit Payout program. CommunityAmerica also actively supports financial education and community partnerships, reflecting its mission of enriching the communities it serves.
CommunityAmerica recently expanded its footprint through the acquisition of UNIFY Financial Credit Union, significantly increasing its scale and reach. With this strategic addition, the combined organization now encompasses approximately $10 billion in revenue and a workforce of more than 1,500 employees. The acquisition strengthens CommunityAmerica Credit Union’s ability to deliver enhanced products, expanded geographic coverage, and greater resources — further reinforcing its commitment to long-term member value and community impact.
