Avril Lavigne inspires kids during children's hospital visit

Avril Lavigne spent time at a children's hospital earlier this week with The Avril Lavigne Foundation to take photos and sing with the young patients.

On Thursday (April 5), the 'What The Hell' pop rocker paid a visit to Mattel Children's Hospital at UCLA where she spread cheer throughout the wards and even played music with the kids.

Writing on her official Twitter page last night, Lavigne explained that it was an "inspiring" trip:

"Just left Mattel Children’s Hospital @UCLAHealth w/ @EvanT – inspiring to meet & play music w/ kids. We’ve got fun plans coming up"

The Avril Lavigne Foundation was founded by the superstar in 2010 and it works to promote "choices so children and youth see they have many options in life and not just a single path defined by their circumstances" and helps "give kids and their families the strength to face their daily challenges".
