Emergency Loans

Personal loans of up to $5,000 will be available for each existing Member at a special fixed rate of 5.99%, with no payments for 90 days, and financing terms up to 60 months. The loan can be written for monthly repayments or due in one lump sum (subject to credit terms), dependent upon the need of the Member. Loans will be granted with a minimum of paperwork, but it will be necessary to prove residency within the disaster area as well as ability to repay. Direct deposit and automatic payments through an Orange County’s Credit Union checking account must be set up within 90 days, or the loan will revert to the prevailing personal loan rate. Other terms and conditions apply.

These smaller relief loans can be used for purposes such as:

Food and Shelter
Minor Repairs
Supplies (board up windows, etc.)
Financing for Replacement Items:
- Furniture
- Appliances
