As we celebrate this union, we also honor SSB’s remarkable 122-year legacy.
While this change may feel new, we want you to know that this partnership was formed by choice: SSB sought out Gesa because of our shared values, commitment to community, and longstanding tradition of putting people first.
At Gesa, we believe in being hands-on neighbors in our communities. We invest time and resources into local schools, support local organizations, and sponsor events across the Pacific Northwest.
Whether offering real-world money management skills through our High School Credit Union Program, volunteering thousands of hours, or providing relief after a devastating wildfire, we’re dedicated to helping the people around us thrive.
One of the simplest ways members direct our support is through our debit cards—which give back to local heroes or schools every time you swipe at no cost to you.
You’ll also find we’re dedicated to reliability. We’re there for local business owners — no matter the size. Whether you’re just starting up or looking to grow, we provide accounts, loans, and expert guidance—all backed by expert local decision-making.
And for your day-to-day banking, our competitive rates, variety of accounts, and exclusive member perks mean you’ll have the right tools to reach your financial goals.
We’re here to build on our shared values and what SSB has established, not replace it. You can expect a smooth transition, with full integration wrapped up by the end of 2025. We’ll keep you informed every step of the way—because we’re proud to continue to offer member-focused stability and transparency as we become “One Gesa.”
We value the SSB team; the friendly faces you know and trust will remain and we look forward to creating even more opportunities for them.
Thank you for trusting us as your financial partner. We’re excited about the road ahead and look forward to helping you reach your goals—together. Welcome to Gesa!
