Kids’ Health Gets a Swing

The golf course in Rochester Hills is more than a green field. It’s a place where famous people and local leaders swing for a good cause.

The Feldman Automotive Children’s Miracle Celebrity Invitational

• Origin: Started six years ago by Mark Wahlberg and Jay Feldman after discussing ways to support Corewell Health and Children’s Miracle Network post‑COVID.
• Growth: Evolved into one of the biggest charity golf events in Southeast Michigan.

Impact

• All proceeds go straight into Corewell Health programs, providing life‑saving care, special equipment, and support for sick children and their families.
• Mission: “You’re only as happy as your least happy child,” said Kevin James, host of the day.

Celebrity Involvement

• Mark Wahlberg: The event honors his mother, who valued helping others over fame or money.
• Anthony Anderson: Joined to use his platform for community improvement.
• Ryan Daly (President, Corewell Health Foundation): Highlights how patients and families keep hope alive.

This Year’s Goal

• Target: $1.4 million.
• Purpose: All funds remain local to support pediatric care in Southeast Michigan.

The Wahlberg family emphasizes that giving back is a responsibility, not an option. Events like this create lasting positive change for kids.
