We were born in San Diego in 1934 to serve our City employees. We grew up here; and like you, we changed when we got older. In 2018, we rebranded to Wheelhouse Credit Union; a name that better represents our friendly and inclusive culture. Although our name changed, we remain true to ourselves. We provide the same financial solutions as a bank so that you can simplify your life and manage your finances in one spot.
