The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country has awarded a $2,500 grant to the Texas Hill Country FHFH venison donation ministry. This funding will help FHFH pay meat processing bills to transform donated deer into nutritious meat for local food banks and feeding ministries located in Bandera, Gillespie, Kendall and Kerr County.

The Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country is the region’s philanthropic endowment, created to support charitable and civic efforts now and for the long term. The Community Foundation works with donors, makes grants to nonprofit organizations, and awards academic scholarships to students in 10 Central Texas counties.

About FHFH – People across America who struggle with food insecurity are often desperate for meat and protein items. FHFH gives nutritious meat to local food banks, food pantries and feeding ministries that help those in need by paying inspected and approved local butcher shops to process deer and livestock that are donated by farmers and hunters. Meat for over 22 million meals has been donated, processed and distributed nationally by FHFH since 1997.  FHFH welcomes new supporters and volunteers to join the cause.

Seth Estep, volunteer coordinator for Central Indiana Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry, presented much needed ground beef to the Lapel Community Food Pantry. The beef was purchased locally by FHFH outside of hunting season due to running out of meat.

We received this note of appreciation for donations of meat to the Frederick Food Bank in Frederick, Maryland:

“The Frederick Department of Housing and Human Services would like to thank Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry for their continued support and commitment to the Frederick Food Bank. Their grateful contributions help us serve our community. Frederick County residents are grateful to have such high-quality, healthy products available to them. Again, we thank FHFH for their hard work and commitment to serving our community. Thank you!”  ~ Michael Grogan, Department of Housing and Human Services, City of Frederick

Volunteers from our FHFH ministry in Wayne County, Ohio spent some time serving with Feeding Medina County which is a group that we’ve supported in the past with venison donations.  Feeding Medina County’s mission is to educate, engage, and lead their community in creating an environment where no one goes hungry. They nourish their community with essential programs that put food on the table for children, families, and seniors who are at risk of hunger.

Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry welcomes Anthony Calix as coordinator for Southern California FHFH.
