This was part of a charitable initiative through sports which was sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as Nairobi became the first African city to host the Innovative and Giving Machines event.
The Giving Machines, designed as large red vending machines, allow individuals to donate, then distributed by local non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The launch is slated for November 30 at Sarit Centre, Nairobi.
Handicap 46 Angela clinched the Ladies title with 63 points while handicap 11 Chris Isabwa was the first nine winner with 33 points followed by handicap 26 Hardeep Sokhi on 31 points.

“The Giving Machines are an embodiment of love in action, bringing people together to help those in need in a fun and memorable way,” said George Munene, representative of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
