VIDEO – Zac Gallen gives back to Arizona community, donates 2.3k gallons of milk to St. Mary’s Food Bank

One in five kids in Arizona is food insecure.

This unfortunate truth motivated Diamondbacks pitcher Zac Gallen to team up with Shamrock Farms to donate 2,300 gallons of milk to St. Mary’s Food Bank.

“Hopefully that can put just a little dent in that food insecurity,” Gallen said. “It’s not anything that anyone in my life or myself have ever experienced, so I can’t imagine. Being able to come here and be able to help just a little bit is fun for me.”

Especially during the summer months when students are out of school, milk is in high demand for Arizona’s youth, so Gallen’s gallons will go a long way.
