WWE DIVA Lilian Garcia made it a weekend of Giving!


When she’s not ring announcing and singing for WWE, Lilian Garcia spends time putting smiles on the WWE Universe’s faces. This past weekend she did just that, but for a very special cause dear to her heart.Garcia went to Akron, Ohio, to visit kids with cancer and help the Akron Children’s Hospital raise money at the 10th Annual LOPen Charity Golf and Music Event, where she sang the National Anthem and even hit the links at the LOPen Celebrity Golf Tournament Outing.“It’s the first year I’ve been involved in it,” the Diva told WWE.com. "Basically it’s to raise money for the Akron Children’s Hospital.

They take care of kids with cancer."“Friday I visited the kids at the hospital. It was so great, WWE donated a bunch toys, action figures, T-shirts, and I went around and gave them to all the kids and they were just ecstatic,” she said. “Seeing that an action figure would bring such smiles to their faces when they’re going through so much in their lives was unbelievable.”Garcia took part in a special meet-and-greet Friday evening at the LOPen Charity Concert, which featured Ira Dean and Brother Trouble. She also met famous athletes, including Bret Saberhagen, Jim McMahon, Larry Johnson and others. (PHOTOS) Saturday morning was the LOPen Celebrity Golf Tournament Outing, and while the Diva didn’t expect to play, she did on a dare.
