Zac Efron has done it again. He is showing how caring he is. On December 19, 2008, Zac took time out of his schedule to visit critically ill patients at the Mattel Children’s Hospital at UCLA in Los Angeles, according to www.aceshowbiz.com.

Zac spent around two hours touring the hospital, visiting with the patients, signing autographs, posing for pictures and handing out $10,000 worth of toys with the help from Gifts.com. Some of the toys that were handed out were electronic keyboards, Tickle Me Elmo dolls, art sets, board games and “High School Musical” products.

A source that saw Zac’ visit told US Weekly, he “really spent time bonding with each of the children and their families.” He “was super gracious and could not have been more kind and truly happy to be there.”

Zac also signed autographs and posed in pictures for the staff.

“The kids were smitten and beaming from ear to ear,” the source added. “Some of the kids couldn’t even speak, but they had the widest grins and would sit as close to him as possible.”

Looks like Zac is spreading Christmas cheer. It is better to give than receive and that he did.

Laker Fans?

According to www.celebrity-gossip.net, Zac Efron and his girlfriend, Vanessa Hudgens were spotted at a Lakers Game at Staples Center in Los Angeles on December 16, 2008. The Lakers were playing the NY Knicks. It was a close game 116-114.

This is not the first time they have been at a Lakers game. Looks like they could possibly be fans.
