About Us

For nearly 90 years, we have been dedicated to serving the financial needs of our members with integrity, respect, commitment, and a deep sense of community. Originally founded in 1936 as the Hawaiian Air Depot Employees Federal Credit Union, we began with a simple mission: to provide financial services that empower our members and strengthen their financial well-being.

As our membership grew and our ties to Hickam Air Force Base deepened, we embraced a new identity in 1950 as Hickam Federal Credit Union—a name that reflected our expanding reach while honoring our roots. Over the decades, we have navigated times of challenge and change, from the devastation of World War II to economic shifts and industry advancements, always remaining steadfast in our commitment to service.

In March 2025, we took the next step in our journey as we became Lōkahi Federal Credit Union. Rooted in the Hawaiian value of lōkahi—meaning unity, harmony, and working together—we embrace a name that reflects not only where we’ve been, but where we’re going. As our membership has grown beyond its original foundation, we now serve individuals and families across Oʻahu. Our new name represents our continued commitment to bringing people together to build a stronger financial future.

Today, as Lōkahi Federal Credit Union, we remain a member-owned, not-for-profit financial institution that prioritizes people over profits, offering competitive rates, lower fees, and personalized service tailored to our members’ unique needs. With multiple branch locations across Oʻahu, modern digital banking solutions, and a strong foundation built on trust and financial strength, we continue to evolve while staying true to our values.
