Lordfica Atieno - Banker

KEF came to my rescue at a time when the fate of my education hung in a balance. My father, who was the bread winner, had lost his job and therefore could no longer afford to provide for the family. I remember my school fees balance had piled up and I had been out of school for almost two months trying to raise money. There was nothing I wanted more at that time than being able to be back in class. Then just at the right time I learnt about KEF via my teacher. I applied for a scholarship and let me say, my prayers were granted. I joined the KEF Family!

This gave me a peace of mind and an opportunity to improve and study even harder. My grades went from good to better and even when I sat for my KSCE examinations I managed to make my sponsors proud by achieving very impressive results.  

In December 2015, I graduated with a Bachelor of Economics and Statistics at Kenyatta University and later on got a job with KCB Bank Kenya. In future I hope to begin my masters and build a strong career in the banking industry.  I’m also a member of the KEF Alumni Association through which members give back to the community by participating in various activities. I am who I am today because KEF was there to hold and mold me. Thank you KEF!
