    Membership

    We're proud of what we've created. We want you to be a part of it, too.

    "Big banks dragged their feet responding to our PPP (Payment Protection Program) inquiry. One call to Kalsee and we had our PPP forms submitted the next day. Amazing customer service during uncertain times."
    “I love Kalsee because of the people. The people make Kalsee. We've had nothing but great service. It's just been really nice to have that personal contact, that hometown friendship.”
    “With the big banks, I really was just a number. We came to Kalsee, and it has been absolutely fantastic."
    "That [Kalsee] crew offered an amazing solution to help us fund this [Dome expansion] and make it all possible. And the blood, sweat, and tears that went into that with us, the gritty determination that you put in to get it through was amazing."

    “Kalsee is like family, really. They bent over backwards for us on numerous occasions when other banks treated us like a number. Kalsee went to bat for us when nobody else would. We switched over everything. I like the small town feel of a credit union, you get more of a personal touch. We couldn’t be happier with Kalsee.”
