WHAT IT TAKES
Check membership eligibility and join the credit union — 1–3 days
Review loan products and current rates on their website — 1–2 hours
Submit a loan application online or at the Cleveland branch — 1–2 hours
WORTH KNOWING
Faith Community United offered emergency loans up to $25,000 during COVID-19, signaling a willingness to serve members in urgent financial need — worth asking about flexible loan options if you're in a tight spot.
