00:12of Las Vegas.

00:13We didn't play very good, but had an amazing time.

00:14So many wonderful people came out here to support our foundation and people had a lot

00:23of fun, which is the most important thing.

00:25Having fun for a worthy cause, it's really nice.

00:32That's the best I've done all day, yes.

00:35And also the fact that we're out here for a good cause and having fun, it's great.

00:40Mark's a good friend, you know, we've worked together in the past, but more importantly

00:43we have a friendship and a friendship over golf as well.

00:47I love to read, and so the fact that he is trying to instill that in youth and if I can

00:53support it in any way and being here is probably the least I can do.

00:58Mark and how he conducts his life and does all these things, it just brings more eyes

01:02and more people to it.

01:03Because what the Wahlbergs do is amazing and they help so many people.

01:07Working hard for the people, using their celebrity and family brand to do things to help others

01:11and it just makes sense.

01:12Of course we're at Shadow, we're in Vegas, it's a great day, great group of people here.

01:22The finalists were on the links for the highly anticipated Celebrity Golf Tournament, followed

01:26by the fundraising gala, which featured entertainment by Busta Rhymes.

01:30Busta Rhymes, Busta, Wahlbergs, Tentator, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

01:41This foundation that Mark has put together for the children, it's not only incredible

01:48but it's the ultimate bottom line.

01:52The foundation helps young people by creating and supporting initiatives like academic achievement,

01:58leadership development, positive behavior, healthy lifestyle and social change.

02:02You'd be surprised how much things may change over time when you start to give these kids

02:07resources and the ability to see beyond their scope.

02:10It's such an honor to be now in that position, to be able to do that and to be that person

02:15that a young person might look at and say, I want to be like that.

02:19It's not something that we need to make a yearly event, I think we should do it quarterly.

02:26This is Sonia Asad in Las Vegas.
