BRONX - Earlier today, the Yankees held their 28th Holiday Food Drive, presented in conjunction with C-Town and Bravo supermarkets and Krasdale Foods.
In-person food donations were accepted by Yankees staff with help from Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader. The food drive also included the ability for fans make monetary donations online over the previous week.
The Yankees, in conjunction with the Bronx Clergy, will distribute all food collected to families in need throughout the Bronx. Additionally, the Yankees have provided the resources to distribute vouchers for additional food purchases to those in need.
