Hunters for the Hungry Supports Food Banks Nationwide
The NRA Hunters’ Leadership Forum (HLF) supports the Hunters for the Hungry (HFH) program. A total of $60,000 has been committed to fund affiliates throughout the country. An NRA-supported initiative, Hunters for the Hungry donates millions of meals to charities and programs focused on feeding the less fortunate every year.
“Last year, HFH affiliates across America applied for and received funding totaling $50,000″, said Joseph P. De Bergalis, Jr., Executive Director of NRA General Operations. “Due to the generosity of the NRA Hunters’ Leadership Forum, these subsidies went towards processing and distributing millions of pounds of harvested meat to feed those in need in our communities. We are grateful to HLF for again offering funding support for this meaningful program.”
Hunters for the Hungry utilizes state and independent programs that have provide millions of pounds of venison to homeless shelters, soup kitchens, and food banks across the USA. Working with the NRA, these programs connect interested individuals with programs in their area while fostering public awareness through education and fundraising. Available through subsidy awards up to $1,500, the fund covers the cost of processing, shipping, and distributing donated meat.
The NRA encourages all members and supporters to donate to those programs either financially or by donating harvested game meat. To find where you can donate in your area, or to support HFH, visit HFTH.nra.org.
