In 1937, seven Wisconsin Axle employees each contributed $1.25 and the Wisconsin Axle Credit Union was established. A new community-based charter was adopted in 1981 and the residents of Oshkosh were eligible to join Wisconsin Axle CU. As growth continued, a new name was needed “to reflect the credit union’s new reach and direction,” and in 1994, CitizensFirst Credit Union made its debut. Following a total of four mergers in 2014 and 2015, a 2015 press release announced that,

As part of a comprehensive rebranding initiative, CitizensFirst Credit Union will adopt the name Verve, a Credit Union, which was approved by its Board of Directors.

Kevin J. Ralofsky, President and CEO of CitizensFirst, says Verve captures the unique personality of the credit union. “Our research was showing name confusion with other area financials, so we knew it was time to choose one to reflect the passionate, innovative work that sets us apart. We believe this new name speaks to our commitment to serving the community and our members.”

Verve is currently Wisconsin’s 13th largest credit union, with more than 63,000 members and deposits in excess of $1.2 billion.
