Highlights
Wildfire Credit Union has been an outstanding partner for Kidd Company. When timing mattered, they delivered and made it easy. I would highly recommend Jim and the Wildfire team to any business owner looking for fast, professional financing and a credit union that truly supports growth.

As a new business, we struggled with start-up costs. Thanks to Jim Couture and Wildfire Credit Union, we consolidated our debt into one manageable payment, freeing up capital to grow our business.

I want to say thank you to Michelle Vannest and the team at Wildfire for helping make this dream become a reality. Without their support we would never have been able to provide such an amazing place for the families in the Lansing area to get their therapeutic services.
