Wings Credit Union was originally chartered by seven Northwest Airlines employees who recognized the value of a cooperative financial institution where members help each other succeed financially. Wings has a longstanding commitment to making a positive difference in the communities we serve. Therefore, the Wings Financial Foundation was established in 2010 to promote financial literacy initiatives in our communities. In the years since, the Foundation has expanded its mission to include supporting our communities in times of need.

As students transition from high school to college, they not only embark on an adventure filled with new learning and growth but also face financial considerations that come with higher education. Our college planning tool helps students, and their families create college plans that align with their stage of planning and income.
As part of its commitment to higher education, the Wings Financial Foundation proudly awards 11 scholarships totaling $30,000 to outstanding Undergrad and Post-Grad members who plan to attend an accredited college, university, or post-secondary technical school. Applicants must be a Wings Credit Union member with their own primary share account.
