LIVERPOOL — Liverpool Central Schools Federal Credit Union has changed its name to Edge Federal Credit Union.
The change follows two years of planning and research, according to the credit union.
“When initially looking to expand and incorporate more of the community, we found the name to be limiting. Many businesses and other educational organizations would turn away thinking that the credit union was only for the Liverpool School District,” Shelly Gayring, assistant manager for Edge, said in a news release.
Teachers of the Liverpool Central School District founded the credit union in 1956. It operated from a school originally, but has been in its own building on Morgan Road since 2004.
Edge said it has seen growth in single employer groups in the past year as it has partnered with another school district, other educational institutions, and small businesses.
