Shell Federal Credit Union (Shell FCU) has proudly served Harris County since its establishment in 1937. Initially created to support employees of the Shell Deer Park plant, the credit union has since evolved into a comprehensive financial institution that places a strong emphasis on member service and community involvement.

As a member-owned cooperative, Shell FCU offers a range of affordable financial services, including savings and checking accounts, loans, and financial education. Their mission focuses on serving their members over generating profits, reflecting a deep commitment to financial stability and responsible leadership.

Membership is available to anyone who resides, works, worships, attends school, or regularly conducts business in Harris County, Texas.

Shell FCU takes an active role in the community through:
- Financial education programs
- Youth account offerings
- Volunteer and outreach initiatives
- Support for local charitable causes

The credit union encourages member participation and engages in numerous efforts to enhance the financial well-being of both its members and the larger community.

Specifically, for the South Belt-Ellington Chamber of Commerce, Shell Federal Credit Union has been a staunch supporter of various chamber events. They are among the first to step up when we seek in-kind donations for our swag bags. Their sponsorships span events such as the annual gala, scholarship awards, Off the Clock, Evening of Cuisine, our inaugural Toast & Tote-ally Bingo, Gold Star Family Honor & Recognition Luncheon, and many others over the years.

Reyna Lara serves as an active and dedicated board member, bringing her unique perspective and positive energy. As one of two lead Ambassadors, Reyna welcomes new chamber members at our celebratory ribbon-cuttings, further demonstrating her commitment.

In summary, Shell Federal Credit Union embodies the spirit of community and collaboration that the South Belt-Ellington Chamber of Commerce strives to promote. Their ongoing support and active participation have made a significant impact on our chamber and the broader community. We are proud to nominate them as the Business of the Quarter.
