THE ICPAK
ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCE
SCHOLARSHIP
The ICPAK
Accounting
and Finance
Scholarship was
launched in 2015
to support needy students from
disadvantaged backgrounds
pursue university education in
finance or accounting related
courses.
Funding for the scholarship
is derived from members’
and other well-wishers’
contributions and through
participation fees raised
through our annual fundraising
golf tournament held in
Nairobi. From this year, ICPAK
will be hosting two editions of
the golf tournament, namely
the Nairobi and Mombasa
editions.
Last year, three beneficiaries
were selected and are currently
under the scholarship pursuing
their courses in different
institutions. In 2016, the
Institute wishes to double the
number of new beneficiaries
from the initial three to six.
The Mombasa edition was
held on 17th May, 2016 at
the Mombasa Golf Club. The
turnout for the tournament was
good and members enjoyed
playing at the course. It was
an opportunity for members
to interact while enjoying the
cool breeze and breathtaking
view of the Indian Ocean.
The Nairobi edition will
be held on the 5th of August
2016 at Muthaiga Golf &
Country Club. ICPAK invites
its members and other wellwishers
to participate in this
charity tournament towards
raising funds to educating
future accounting practitioners.
The charges are as below;
Fee:
• Individual player –
Ksh. 3500
