Family Bank has announced a KES 2 million sponsorship of A.P.S Bomet FC. This is part of the bank’s commitment to nurturing athletic talent and harnessing the power of sports as a catalyst for social unity and transformation.
Recently promoted to the Kenya Premier League, A.P.S Bomet FC brings with it a strong community presence, boasting a loyal fan base of more than 35,000 and a 15,000-seat home stadium in Bomet. The sponsorship marks a significant boost to the team’s preparations and performance as they face off with Kenya’s top football clubs.
Deputy Inspector General of Administration Police Service Mr. Gilbert Masengeli, CBS, OGW, SS, said, “This partnership marks the beginning of an impactful journey. Similar to our motto of Uaminifu na Haki (Integrity and Justice), we are committed and disciplined to ensure that we work hand in hand with Family Bank for the betterment of Administration Police lives.”
Family Bank CEO, Nancy Njau, said, “As a Bank, we are proud to stand alongside A.P.S Bomet FC, a team that is bettering the future of youth and the community at large. Football has the unique power to unite, inspire and transform lives. For us at Family Bank, today’s partnership is about more than football, it represents a broader commitment to shared values with the Administration Police Service.”
Family Bank’s support for A.P.S Bomet FC builds on its long-standing relationship with Kenya’s uniformed officers. Beyond financial services, the Bank continues to champion impactful community initiatives through its social investment arm, the Family Group Foundation. Notably, through a partnership with the Military Wives Association of Kenya (MWAK), more than 200 children of service members have been empowered with technical and entrepreneurial skills.
The sponsorship was unveiled during a high-profile event attended by senior APS representatives, A.P.S Bomet FC leadership, and Family Bank’s Retail Division, led by Chief Retail Officer Phyllis Kimani.
