The winner will also have a speaking role in upcoming animated film "Charming", which features the singer as the voice of Snow White.
"I'm excited that this year's campaign is supporting people with Lyme disease and helping others to better understand the issue. My fans are always so supportive and ready to give back; I look forward to coming together for an issue that's so close to me," Avril said in a statement.
