PALOS VERDES, CA — Actor Jack Black will lead Layla Paige’s Nature Walk in Palos Verdes to raise funds for TrinityKids Care, the only dedicated pediatric hospice and palliative care program in Los Angeles and Orange counties, the TrinityKids Care press release said.

"I’m honored to support TrinityKids Care so it can help children and families through some really tough times," Black said.

TrinityKids Care, a nonprofit organization part of Providence St. Joseph Health, provides service to more than 160 infants, children and adolescents with life-limiting illnesses, the press release said. Layla Paige's Nature Walk is in honor of a 2-year-old who was cared for by TrinityKids Care, but sadly died in 2017.

"Words cannot express the depth of gratitude we owe to TrinityKids Care," said Layla’s mother, Larissa Sonnen. "The medical, emotional, and financial support they provide families in their darkest time of need is beyond words. And we are so thankful for Jack Black for helping shed light on such an important and meaningful cause."
