Bank Overview

UICCU stands for the University of Iowa Community Credit Union. In 2018 the state of Iowa changed the law to make it so that public university names could not be included in the names of credit unions and so they changed the credit union name to GreenState Credit Union. UICCU and GreenState Credit Union are the same financial institution.

The credit union was started in 1938 to serve the Iowa Hospital employees. It expanded in 1966 to include serving the students and alumni of the University of Iowa as well as hospital employees. In 1988 they changed the name to include “community” as they expanded their services to all residents of the local communities and were not limited to University students or hospital staff.

GreenState Credit Union has stayed true to their roots of serving the Iowa community. They have a foundation called GreenState Giveback which provides financial support for community challenges. In 2020 GreenState Credit Union gave over $1.2 million in assistance to credit union members and their communities who were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and the derecho storm. This included issuing personal emergency loans, business loans, and fee forgiveness for those affected. They also donated over $250,000 in direct financial contributions to local charities.
