When Asta Cummings joined Brooklyn Cooperative Federal Credit Union nine years ago, she discovered a mission-driven institution transforming how financial services reach underserved communities. Serving predominantly minority, immigrant, and low-to-middle-income neighborhoods across Bushwick, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and East New York, Brooklyn Coop pioneered innovative products like credit builder loans and cooperative housing mortgages decades before they became mainstream.
Through their relationship-first approach, free financial counseling, and an "achievements framework" that rewards member milestones, they've built lasting relationships and generational wealth in communities that need it most. CNote is proud to partner with Brooklyn Coop to help it access mission-aligned deposits from CNote clients, helping support the credit union's community-centered lending and wealth-building initiatives.
