Zac Efron brought holiday cheer to an LA hospital by helping to distribute $10,000 worth of gifts to sick children on Friday.

The High School Musical star gave away presents including art sets, board games and High School Musical merchandise to critically ill patients at the Mattel Children’s Hospital at UCLA.

“He really spent time bonding with each of the children and their families,” a guest told US Weekly. “The kids were smitten and beaming from ear to ear.

“Some of the girls couldn’t even speak, but they had the widest grins and would sit as close to him as possible. Zac was super gracious and could not have been more kind and truly happy to be there.”
