Let our lending experience
IMPROVE
your lending experience.
“People helping people, that’s the Credit Union motto. The more we help our members,
the more we discover opportunities to improve their financial portfolios. That is why
our experienced team is the best source you have for financial help. Our goal is to tailor
the best loan possible for you. Excessive fees, fine print conditions and a complicated
loan process are not part of our solution. Honest, up-front and stress free is our way – the people way.”

rewards. Your Allegent Visa credit card acquires points and can be used for
merchandise, recreation, travel rewards, and yes, actual cash back with our
UChoose ® Rewards program. Allegent FCU does not use a lot of fine print —
we keep it simple. We have no annual fees, no balance transfer fees, and no cash
advance fees — period. Oh, by the way, that is our fine print.”

Allegent Community Federal
Credit Union’s History
Mark Bruno
With only 10 Federal government employees and just $70, Allegent Community Federal Credit Union, formerly known as
Allegheny County (PA) U.S. Government Employees Federal Credit Union, was chartered on March 7, 1935. Since then,
the credit union has grown to over 16,000 members and over $158 million in assets. Originally located in the United States
Post Office and Courthouse Building on Grant Street, the credit union relocated when the William S. Moorehead Federal
Building was built. Due to tremendous growth, the decision was made to move once again in 1991 to our present location in
Liberty Center. Since moving to this location, we have added ATM access to all PNC® Bank ATMs.
In October 2006, we progressed to a community charter and officially changed our name to Allegent Community
Federal Credit Union. Allegent opened a second branch in 2010, in Franklin Park, PA, allowing us to offer new services to
members, such as, a drive-thru service and ATM, safe deposit boxes and expanded weekday and Saturday hours.
In October 2014, Eastern Pittsburgh Bell Federal Credit Union merged with Allegent. This resulted in a third branch on Rodi
Road in Penn Hills, which has allowed easier accessibility for our members in the Eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh.
You can become a member of Allegent Community Federal Credit Union as long as you live, work, worship, or attend
school in Butler or Allegheny County. All you need is $5 to open up a savings share account and you can reap the
benefits of being a part of the Allegent Community.
