Started in 1934 by eight DPS teachers who pooled their funds to make loans to other teachers. Originally called the DPS Credit Union, Westerra was renamed to reflect the 7-county Denver Metro Area being served. The credit union remains focused on offering financial services, grants, fundraising, and financial education to teachers and schools. What’s better? DPS employees receive a free state or national park pass or FitBit™ when they complete a financial review and open a new account. Visit a local branch or online at https://www.westerracu.com/.
