Zia Credit Union’s Most Awarded Year Yet!

2024 was an incredible year for Zia Credit Union, and we owe it all to you, our members, as well as the amazing people who have built and supported this credit union over the decades. 

As we prepare to celebrate our 70th Anniversary in 2025, we are filled with gratitude for the trust you’ve placed in us and for everyone who has contributed to our success. 

In 2024, we were honored to receive several awards, and every one of them reflects the dedication of our members, team, and leadership.

A National Honor, Thanks to You

We were deeply honored to be named one of America’s Best Credit Unions in New Mexico by Newsweek.1 This recognition wouldn’t have been possible without our members, who inspire us every day to provide better service, innovative products, and genuine support. It’s because of your loyalty and belief in Zia Credit Union that we continue to thrive.

Celebrating Local Achievements Together

We also received the 2024 Financial Institution of the Year Award from the Los Alamos Chamber of Commerce.2 This award reflects the strength of our community ties and the trust we’ve earned from members like you. It’s an honor to serve Los Alamos, and every county in our field of membership, helping our neighbors achieve financial goals and supporting local causes that make a difference.

Additionally, we were nominated for the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce Business Achievement Award. This nomination is another reminder of the shared success between Zia Credit Union and the communities we serve.

Gratitude for the Team Behind the Scenes

We know that none of this would have been possible without the dedication of our incredible team. From the friendly faces you see at our branches to the staff working behind the scenes, every team member plays a crucial role in delivering the service and care you deserve.

We also want to recognize and thank our past and present board members and leadership. These individuals have shaped Zia Credit Union over the years, guiding us with wisdom and vision. Their leadership and commitment have laid the foundation for our success today.

Honoring 70 Years of Service

As we reflect on our 69-year history, we are humbled by how far we’ve come. From our earliest days in 1955 to this most awarded year, we’ve been driven by one mission: to empower our members and strengthen our communities. Every step of the way, our members, team, and leaders have been the reason for our success.

Looking Ahead

This year, in 2025, we’ll celebrate our 70th Anniversary, a milestone made possible by all of you—our members, our team, and our leaders. We are more inspired than ever to continue growing, innovating, and giving back to the communities we call home.

From all of us at Zia Credit Union, thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we’ve built something truly special, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds. 

Here’s to 70 years of service, success, and community—and to many more to come!
