2026 Mid American Credit Union ®


2026 marks Mid American’s 90th anniversary – nearly a century of serving Kansans and their communities.
 
From humble beginnings to serving thousands—Mid American Credit Union was founded in 1936 to support credit union employees and volunteers when they couldn’t borrow from their own institutions. As laws changed, so did we. In 1979, we became Mid American Credit Union, expanding membership across Kansas and beyond. Today, we’re a full-service financial institution with over $500M in assets. Our vision remains the same: Exceeding members’ expectations every day. 
Through growth, change, and several mergers along the way, one thing has stayed the same—our commitment to you. Thank you for being part of our journey. Here’s to the past, present, and many more years ahead!
Mid American Credit Union – Chartered as: Kansas Federal Credit Union in 1936. Name Changed to Mid American Credit Union in 1979.
 
Mergers:
Challenger KC Federal Credit Union 1984
Cramer Credit Union 1984
Sunflower Credit Union 2009
Jayhawk Federal Credit Union 2014
Veterans Administration Credit Union 2015
New Century Credit Union 2015
Wesley Medical Credit Union 2016
As we celebrate 90 years, we can’t help but look back on some memorable member perks—free blankets, complimentary color portraits, and so many moments that made membership special.
 
While the perks have evolved, our commitment to our members has remained the same for 90 years and counting 
As we celebrate 90 years, we’re looking back at where we started—and how far we’ve come.
 
From night deposit boxes and early ATMs to today’s modern, digital banking options, our focus has always been on making banking convenient for our members. Here’s to 90 years of progress! 
Taking it back to Easter 1998 at Mid American Credit Union! 
 
Members were greeted with pastel decorations, baskets full of goodies, and plenty of smiles to go around. It was a day all about community, connection, and a little springtime fun.
 
It’s amazing to see how much has changed over the years—but one thing has stayed the same: our commitment to serving our members like family.
Throwing it back to where it all began.
 
From our old building to the classic sign, we’ve come a long way, and we’re grateful for every member who’s been part of the journey.
