Alabama Hunters Helping The Hungry

How Alabama Hunters Helping the Hungry Works

Alabama hunters helping the hungry

Hunters field dress the deer and take it to a processor participating in the Alabama Hunters Helping the Hungry program. The hunter is not charged to donate the venison, but hunters may voluntarily pay processing fees to provide more venison for food banks to distribute. The deer is processed into ground venison, packaged and frozen in quantities not exceeding four pounds each. The process venison is distributed to the nearest participating food bank. The processor receives $1 per pound from the Alabama Conservation and Natural Resources Foundation for their labors. The food bank picks up the venison for distribution to those in need. Deer processors not participating in Alabama Hunters Helping the Hungry are asked to call (334) 242-3467. Click on the link for more information on Alabama Hunters Helping the Hungry.
