MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) - For the third straight year, Marquette legends Dwyane Wade and Travis Diener came together for Wade vs. Diener to raise awareness for children's literacy. 

The former Marquette guards hold a golf outing, Champions for Literacy Celebration and youth basketball camp during the weekend for their cause. 

Both are grateful for the support from the fans that used to cheer them on when they suited up for the blue and gold so they can help kids have 'a better foundation' as they go through life. 

"Bringing people together, trying to raise awareness and funds. I think every year we're trying to do better and better just so we can continue this long term," said Diener.  

"We want kids to dream, and we want to be able to follow their lives from our program to the next program. I have wade scholars now at Marquette university. I want those kids to be a part of Wade Scholars. I want to walk with them on campus one day and know that they started in the Wade reading program. So, we look forward to it," Wade said.
