​Freedom Federal Credit Union Opening Branch in Perry Hall

PERRY HALL, MD —Freedom Federal Credit Union announced this week it would be opening a new full-service branch in Perry Hall next month, and it will mark the occasion with a Grand Opening celebration.

The new branch will open on August 21 at the Honeygo Village Center, 5000 Honeygo Center Drive. It will be Freedom's first branch in Baltimore County and sixth in Northeastern, Maryland, according to a release.

On the branch's first day, a Grand Opening will feature music, food, giveaways and family-friendly fun.

The new Freedom Federal Credit Union will feature two drive-thru lanes, a 24/7 ATM, a free coin machine and ample parking. Each day, financial services representatives will be available in-person and on-site to support all business and individual banking needs, representatives from the company said.

Marcus Johnson will be the new branch's manager, according to a release. Johnson has been with the company for nearly 10 years, most recently serving as the branch manager at the Freedom Federal Credit Union Swan Creek location in Havre de Grace.

Alexis Watt, who previously served as a senior financial services representative at the Swan Creek branch, also will join the local team in Perry Hall.

Freedom was founded in 1953 in Baltimore as MATCOM Federal Credit Union. Later, the credit union moved to Harford County in support of the Edgewood Arsenal, which eventually became part of the Aberdeen Proving Ground, the company said.

The credit union received its Harford County charter in 1999, and changed its name to Freedom of Maryland Federal Credit Union a year later. In 2020, Freedom's charter was expanded to serve the people of Baltimore County.
