Manchester City star recently paid out for a new state-of-the-art facility for sick kids at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital.
England defender Fabian Delph was on hand to officially open the "pain-distraction unit" and meet the children.
The facility was designed for the comfort of the kids in such a way that they can play interactive games on a screen to distract themselves while wearing special 3D glasses, while receiving treatment.
The building also blocks out sights and sounds associated with procedures and operations to help children relax.
Speaking about his visit to the hospital to the club website, Delph said: "Today I was blown away by the spirit and bravery of all the kids I've had the pleasure of meeting.
"To be able to give something back to our local community and support the great work of the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital is a real honour for everyone at the club."
Delp with six other children cut the ribbon to officially open the care center as Man City star also delivered team kit to them.
Sarah Naismith, Director of Charites at Royal Manchester Children's Hospital Charity added: "It was a real pleasure to welcome Fabian to our Children's Hospital to meet some of our patients and to unveil the piece of specialist equipment which the squad very kindly funded.
"The 3D Pain Distraction Unit will be used to ease patients' fears and take their minds off medical procedures which can be daunting for young children.
"We're extremely grateful for all the support we receive from the club; they are always going above and beyond to think of our patients."
