LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

In a lucky and touching coincidence, a trip to Orange County for a WWE event by Lindsay Lohan turned into a surprise for kids from The Sunshine Foundation of Canada.

The actress happened to be backstage at WWE 's Monday Night Raw at The Honda Center Tuesday evening, the same time when 14-year-old Brandon from Cranbrook, British Columbia was meeting his favorite wrestling stars, Jeff Hardy and John Cena.

The Sunshine Foundation of Canada, which makes dreams come true for children with severe physical disabilities or life-threatening illnesses, had surprised Brandon with a VIP trip to meet his favorite wrestling stars, Suzanne Edmondson of the Sunshine Foundation, told Access Hollywood.

Lucky for Brandon, Lindsay, who appeared to share in his love of the WWE, met with Brandon and his sister, posing for pictures and chatting with the 14-year-old.

"The Sunshine Foundation of Canada has not previously worked with Lindsay Lohan, but we are extremely grateful to her that she took the time to meet with Brandon." Edmondson told Access.

"We have however, worked with the WWE many times, and they have always bent over backwards to arrange meetings and events for our kids. This will be the 26th dream we have worked with the WWE since 1987," Edmondson added.
