On July 9, 2021, Family Bank unveiled a KES 3 million renovation of the Nairobi Central Police Station, marking a significant upgrade to the facility.
The three-month-long project, funded by the bank, included painting, cabro installation, fabrication of benches, and addition of new seats for the seating areas. The renovation also involved landscaping to create a more welcoming environment for the public.
Family Bank CEO Rebecca Mbithi expressed pride in the partnership with the National Police Service, stating, "As a Bank, we are very proud of this partnership with the National Police Service. It is my firm belief that this facelift will enable a better working environment for the servicemen and women at Central Police Station and create a friendlier people-centred station."
Deputy Inspector General Edward Mbugua thanked Family Bank for their support, saying, "We thank Family Bank for extending support to the police force who play a critical role in our society. I would like to urge other corporates to extend support and the much-needed appreciation to motivate our men and women in blue."
The commissioning ceremony was attended by Nairobi Police Commander Augustine Nthumbi, Central Police Station OCS Geoffrey Juma, and Family Bank's Founder T. K. Muya.
