About Us
It is our core belief at Addison Avenue that we can help people to make their lives better. Through our full service atmosphere, full range of products, and our Investment Services Division, we are set apart as a Credit Union that can help solve our members' real life problems and direct them towards achieving financial freedom - at any stage of life.
Where We've Been
We began serving Hewlett Packard employees over 50 years ago. Since then, we have increased our membership, added new products and services, and introduced the technology needed to simplify the lives of our members.
We see our logo, the white picket fence, as representing a community of families and colleagues who have worked together for years and share a common heritage.
Our name comes from the garage - that legendary place on Addison Avenue in Palo Alto, CA where Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard began their startup known today as HP.
How We Are Different
We offer an industry-leading investment services division with the highest assets under management in the credit union history.
We offer all the online services you need to conduct your banking 24/7 - only 30% of our members ever visit a branch.
We are ranked in the top 1% of all credit unions in the country for the value we provide to our members.
We are not-for-profit and member-owned. No paid board members or stock holders here. Credit Unions are cooperatives, often sponsored by employers and are funded by their members. Today in the U.S., more than 71 million people are members.
