Managing money as a person of faith should not mean choosing between Catholic values and everyday banking tools. Alliance Catholic Credit Union is Michigan's Catholic credit union, chartered in 1956 as Guardian Angels Parish Credit Union and later formed through mergers of Catholic credit unions across the state.^1 Its mission is to provide trusted financial services, inspired by Catholic values and traditions, for Catholic communities and the neighbors they serve.^1
The free mobile app and digital banking give members around-the-clock access to balances, transactions, eStatements, transfers, mobile check deposit, bill pay, debit-card controls, Zelle, and optional biometric login.^2^4 The app is on iPhone, iPad, and Android.^3
Membership is open to people who live, work, worship, or study at Catholic schools, parishes, and organizations.^1 The credit union offers parish checking, ITIN mortgages, and university checking with campus branches at Madonna University and the University of Detroit Mercy, plus bilingual financial wellness workshops in English and Spanish.^1
Alliance Catholic Foundation, a 501(c)(3) launched in 2020, supports Life & Family, Works of Mercy, and Evangelization, including K–12 and post-secondary scholarships.^5 Heart for the Holidays and partnerships with Walking with Moms in Need and Catholic Charities of Southeast Michigan continue that service.^1
