On July 12, 2021, Family Bank marked a significant milestone in its partnership with the National Police Service by completing a Sh3 million renovation of the Nairobi Central Police Station.
"As a Bank, we are very proud of this partnership with the National Police Service," said Family Bank CEO Rebecca Mbithi at the commissioning ceremony. "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."
The three-month-long renovations, funded by the Bank, included painting of the station, installation of cabro, fabrication of benches, and addition of new seats for the seating areas. The project also involved landscaping to make Nairobi's foremost police station more welcoming.
Deputy Inspector General Edward Mbugua expressed gratitude to Family Bank for extending support to the police force, who play a critical role in society. He urged other corporates to extend support and appreciation to motivate the 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.
