Blue Federal Credit Union

Celebrating over 70 years of being a lifelong champion for its members, Blue Federal Credit Union was originally chartered in 1951 as Warren Federal Credit Union by a group of civilian personnel at F.E. Warren Air Force Base. Over the next 65 years, the organization grew until an opportunity arose to merge with a successful Colorado-based credit union, Community Financial Credit Union, which had nearly 50 years of its own history and growth. In 2016, the two credit unions came together to form Blue.

The name ‘Blue’ reflects its Warren Air Force roots (Air Force Blue) and a deep connection to the spectacular Rocky Mountain Front Range, open skies, clean waters, and promotes the idea that the sky is the limit when you become a member of Blue Federal Credit Union.

In 2020, Blue experienced another opportunity for growth by acquiring two branches previously operated by Liberty Savings Bank. The following year, in 2021, Blue celebrated a landmark achievement by opening its World Headquarters in the heart of Cheyenne, heralding a new phase of expansion and innovation. Continuing its expansion, in 2024, Blue joined forces with Aventa Credit Union, an institution rooted in Colorado Springs since its inception in 1957 by the Colorado Springs Utilities Department. This union enhanced Blue’s connections and legacy within the community, strengthening its regional footprint.

Blue is an organization that empowers its members to tap into the potential of their money, life, and community. As a creator of authentic connections, Blue experienced rapid growth, with members joining from throughout Colorado, Wyoming, and the world. Blue currently has over 140,000 members worldwide, 27 physical locations, and over $2.25 billion in assets. Blue also continues to foster relationships as a community connector with local organizations that have been essential to the organization’s growth throughout the years.

At Blue, members find a lifelong champion excited to help them and their community thrive, no matter the goal. Whether members are saving for a car, a house, retirement, or investing back in their neighborhood, Blue lights the way to make dreams a reality. When each member is equipped with guidance on how to achieve their financial and lifelong possibilities, entire communities connect and progress in lockstep toward a future of boundless possibilities.
