History
Park View was formed at what is now Eastern Mennonite University to provide an organization through which employees would establish a savings program and these savings would be available for other employees to borrow. Thus, one member's savings became another member's loan. All staff and board members were volunteers. An individual's character and integrity were the basis for evaluating loans. In 1982, membership expanded to include Mennonite churches in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County, VA to enable members to channel funds to assist one another in the areas of mutual aid and financial concern. By 2002, Park View had grown to include numerous partner organizations. Financial services were added to meet members' needs and expectations, resulting in a one-stop financial resource that provided savings, loans, investments and insurance. Today, we serve multiple faith-based organizations, businesses, community partners and people while continuing to add eligibility opportunities.
