Rockdale Federal Credit Union is a multi-service financial co-operative formally organized on January 20th, 1970.

Maines, Nolin Werchan, Clyde L. Paceley, Thomas E. Alford, H. E. Rowland, Jack L. Crane and D. M. Nystrom. Initial organization of Rockdale Works Federal Credit Union helped to provide a financial organization for the employees of the Aluminum Company of America Rockdale Works Plant and the employees of the wholly subsidiary Rockdale Sandow and Southern Railroad. The approval of Federal Credit Union Charter Number 19926 on January 27th, 1970 allowed for the Credit Union to help promote financial services and security for its membership.

Since original organization, Rockdale Works Federal Credit Union is now Rockdale Federal Credit Union (RFCU). RFCU has grown to over $55,000,000 in assets and serves over 8,900 member/owners. RFCU has convenient full service locations in Rockdale and Thorndale.

In March, 2006, RFCU began construction on a new facility in Rockdale at 1821 W. Cameron to replace the existing RFCU facility at 1525 W. Cameron. The construction process was completed as scheduled and the new Rockdale facility opened on January 16th, 2008.
