A London-based Ghanaian banker, Adom Frempong has donated to the children's wing of Captain One Golf Society, a rapidly growing charity group.

The project provides free training to young kids particularly underprivileged children living in neighborhoods near golf courses across the country.

Mr Frempong donated practice balls and two golf trolleys to help the students train and practice with right golf equipments.

The Director of Media Production for Captain One Golf Society, Moses Kojo Sassah also donated a tablet to help record scores and track the progress of the  youngsters during training and competitions. 

In addition, American-based Kenyan philanthropist Mary Wangu Maina who had previously donated golf clubs and balls to the Captain One Golf Society also made a cash donation to the children.
