ACFE

Through the ACFE Foundation, the Ritchie-Jennings Memorial Scholarship Program supports students worldwide who have an interest in pursuing a career in fraud examination and wish to develop their knowledge, skills and abilities associated with a fraud examination or similar path.

The scholarship was named after two members of the ACFE, Larry Jennings, CFE, CPA, 49; and Tracy Ritchie, CFE, CPA, 41; both of Houston, Texas. They were among five people fatally wounded when terrorists in Karachi, Pakistan fired upon their vehicle on November 14, 1997. All five were employees of Houston-based Union Texas Petroleum Holdings Inc. Mr. Ritchie served as senior audit supervisor and Mr. Jennings served as audit manager for the company. They were en route to Union Texas’ Karachi office.
