Zac Gallen keeps giving back to local kids

Zac Gallen isn’t just an ace on the mound — he’s a difference-maker in the Arizona community. For each of his 156 strikeouts with the Diamondbacks in 2024, Gallen made a donation to the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley, thanks to the Rockin’ Protein’s “K’s for Kids” program. On Monday, he kept his arm loose, playing wiffle ball with all 100 kids in attendance at the Boys and Girls Club of Gilbert, Arizona.  

Back in June, Gallen founded the ZG23Fund in partnership with Shamrock Farms and St. Mary’s Food Bank to provide food and milk to kids in need during the summer months. With the 2025 season on the horizon, Zac Gallen’s success on the mound is poised to go hand-in-hand with his continued efforts to make a difference in the local community.
