Hunters Helping the Hungry allows hunters to donate whole field-dressed deer to participating meat processors, with the final product donated to food pantries or charitable organizations statewide. The program is made possible through monetary donations that cover the processing costs of this program.
Every deer donated by hunters yields about 40 pounds of pure ground venison; that’s about 160 quarter-pound burgers. Since the program’s inception in 2011, Hunters Helping the Hungry has provided more than 900,000 meals to Nebraskans. Working together, we can keep that number rising!
