Do you live or work anywhere in the state of Washington? Does your employer offer GHCU membership as an employee benefit? (Check the list here.) If your employer is not listed, have your HR contact call 206-298-9394 or 1-800-562-5515, or email us at elainep@ghcu.org. It's free and a great benefit!

Even one teeny little "yes" to any of these questions (the pulse question doesn't count) means you can join GHCU. But that's not all...

Have parents? Kids? Cousins? Nieces and nephews? Grandparents? What about great-aunt Matilda and uncle Zane? If you're eligible to join, you can share the joy of GHCU with all your family members, no matter where they live or work. They'll thank you, really they will. It may even result in much more extravagant presents on your birthday.

Click to our Apply page, call our Virtual Branch, or levitate thyself to the nearest GHCU branch to sign up. Then give us some of your vital statistics and plunk a few bucks into a GHCU savings account to become a member, and keep it there to remain a member (earning dividends every month on balances of $100 or more). These funds represent your membership shares, which are your ownership stake in this cooperative enterprise. Then, you're an owner. And as such, you get all the rights and privileges accorded thereof. No, not the corporate jet or marble jacuzzi tub. But great financial products and services from someone you can trust.

You'd rather have that anyway, right?
