Pooja Hegde sure has a heart of gold! The gorgeous actress who is riding high on the success of her latest Telugu release, 'DJ', has been associated with an NGO working for the children suffering from cancer. 

The actress has pledged to not just support the organisation, but also devote a considerable amount of her time to visiting the hospitals and meeting the children associated with them. Doing so, she visited the children's cancer ward at the Tata Memorial Hospital, where she spent a couple of hours with the children there. She not just interacted with them, but also distributed lip-smacking food packets and chocolates for them. 

Pooja is quite concerned about the kids and she has decided to visit them frequently. She has also advised the doctors to provide the children with everything they need to get through this challenging time.

She says, "I felt really nice that I went and met the patients there.The cancer kids are so resilient.My heart goes out to them and their parents. I am glad that I  could help them in my own little way which got a smile on their face."
