North Star Credit Union opened in 1939 as Northern Farmer’s Co-op Credit Union, sponsored by the Northern Farmer’s Co-op Society. The Credit Union was based out of the Co-op Store until it burned down in October 1994. After operating out of the BIC building for some time, the Credit Union was able to relocate in January 1996 to Main Street, where it currently stands. Once relocated North Star extended its field of membership to Lake Country Power members. To accommodate our growing membership, we expanded our building in 2012. In 2013, we broadened our field of membership once again; this time allowing students, family, volunteers, and staff of school district 2142 to join. In 2014, we created a student focus Group called “The B.O.S.S” (Bunch of Students Saving) at the North Woods School. With their help, we successfully opened its a student branch in the North Woods Campus called “The Money Cave”. On June 1, 2015, Cook Area Credit Union changed its name to North Star Credit Union. Our new name is representative of our vision: to build thriving communities across Northern Minnesota. We are proud of our history and growth in the Cook community, and we are confident we can help other communities thrive. We understand our success goes hand in hand with the success of our communities. That is why we continually work to bring our members additional products and services, invest in our communities through sponsorships, scholarships, and events, and encourage financial education for members of all ages. Since 2017 we have welcomed three additional branches through merger, now proudly serving members in Nashwauk, Duluth, and Brooks communities, as well as our hometown of Cook. The mergers offered more opportunities for our members and surrounding communities to benefit from the cooperative spirit. We are still your hometown bank, now with more products and services, and growing to serve our membership for future generations. We are now serving Virginia.
