It all started in 1935 when a group of 10 individuals pooled their resources to help each other succeed financially by starting a Credit Union. Southern Lakes Credit Union is a member owned financial cooperative. With our Home Office in Kenosha, WI we are a Community Chartered Credit Union serving all individuals living or working in Kenosha, Racine, Walworth, Milwaukee, Rock and Waukesha counties in Wisconsin and Lake and McHenry counties in Illinois.
