About Us at Rome Federal Credit Union

The Revere Rome Division Employees Federal Credit Union was first chartered in January 1936. The Credit Union was originally opened as a small office near the gate in the mill at the Revere Copper and Brass. Revere employees, as well as their spouses and members of their immediate familes, were eligible to become members.

In June of 1980 a new building was erected on Seneca Street, just outside of the entrance to Revere Copper Products. In 1985 the Rome Municipal Employee Federal Credit Union merged with the Revere Employees Credit Union and the credit union name was changed to Rome Federal Credit Union.

By 1995 our membership grew to include employees of Revere Copper Products, Inc, Navelli Cadiliac, Davidson's Chevrolet, Rome Memorial Hospital Employees and the entire City of Rome Employees.

In 2004 our logo was changed to Rome Federal ""Above and Beyond"". Memberhsip was also extended to several additional local businesses, including M & L Trucking, Kris-Tech Wire, Jet Sew, American Allow Steel, Jervis Library, Toccolano Club, Rome Housing Authority and MA Polce.

January 2007 the lobby and all the offices were completely updated.

2008 a year we concentrated on communitity involvement. See the community involvement tab.

In 2009 new management was set in place and unprecedented challenges faced the Rome Federal Credit Union and all natural person credit unions. The management team, staff and board remain focused on providing our members with the excellent customer service and competitive products that they have grown to appreciate.

For 2011, we are looking to our youth for new membership enrollment with the addition of our Kids Savings plan and mascot, “Copper the Penny”. Copper brings us back to our Rome roots by paying tribute to Revere Copper and Brass and Rome, “The Copper City”.

We are also planning ahead for an exciting celebration to commemorate our 75th anniversary in 2012. Watch for the details on this web-site, your quarterly newsletter and in our lobby.
