Zac Efron Gets Charitable with the Children

Doing his part to help bring a little cheer this holiday season, Zac Efron paid a visit to the Mattel Children’s Hospital on the UCLA campus on Friday (December 19). Teaming up with Gifts.com, the “High School Musical” heartthrob happily presented gifts, signed autographs and posed alongside his giddy fans as he made his hospital rounds to the facility’s patients. And though he happened to be at UCLA this particular day, the 21-year-old Efron had at one time planned to attend rival school USC. “I was accepted to the film program, but I deferred,” Zac recently told press. And though his post-secondary plans were derailed by the success of “High School Musical,” Zac still sees himself hitting the books someday. “Eventually," he said. “But not at this moment.”
