About Pillar Credit Union
Pillar Credit Union was established in 1960 as a state-chartered credit union originally named Marion Erie Credit Union to serve Erie Lackawanna Railroad employees and their families.
After several mergers and expanding across six Ohio counties, the institution adopted the Pillar Credit Union name in 2020 and merged with Tappan Community Credit Union in 2026.
The member-owned cooperative operates full-service branches in Marion, Mount Gilead, and Mansfield, Ohio.
