KanPak bottles surplus milk to support hunger relief
The premium shelf-stable milk will nourish families in need amid immense demand.
Two truckloads of surplus milk donations arrived last week at Southern California's Second Harvest Food Bank of Orange County from KanPak U.S.’s dairy production facility in Kansas. The shelf-stable premium whole milk may feed food-insecure families immediately or up to nine months from now, said Irvine, Calif.-based Golden State Foods (GSF), parent company of KanPak U.S., Wichita, Kan.
"I saw on TV that they were throwing milk away, and I thought that was crazy," said Larry McGill, corporate vice president, GSF and CEO, KanPak U.S. "I knew that there had to be something that we could do to help."
