How To Donate Deer

 

HOW TO DONATE VENISON

Option One:  Donate an entire deer- HFTH pays the processing fee

If you would like to assist the program by donating deer all you have to do is take your legally harvested, field-dressed deer to a participating meat processor or specified collection point (see participating processor list). There is a simple form to fill out stating you are donating your deer.  Hunters for the Hungry will be billed for the processing costs.  The meat will then be given to a local feeding program so that it can be distributed to people in need. To help our program be as cost- effective as possible please donate large bodied animals. Processors reserve the right to refuse any carcass not properly cared for.

Option Two:  Donate a package or two from a deer that you have had processed for your personal use

     When you have a deer processed for your family consider donating a portion of the meat to Hunters for the Hungry. Every package makes a difference.  As little as 1 pound will help.  The processor will store this meat until it is picked up for distribution to the hungry.

Option Three:  Donate an entire deer plus the cost of processing　    

      In addition to donating a deer at one of the participating meat processors or collection points send the $45.00 cost of processing to the Hunters for the Hungry program. A donation form is provided on the website if you would like to make a financial donation. Your gift is tax deductible and you will receive a receipt for your tax records

.Option four: Donate deer from damage permit harvest
