People across America struggle with food insecurity and are often desperate for meat and protein items. We pay local butcher shops to process deer that are donated by generous hunters like you and give the meat to feeding programs and ministries that help those in need.

How FHFH Works

HUNTERS

HUNTERS

Hunters in some parts of the country are able to harvest more deer than they can eat or share with their friends and family. Farmers are issued management permits to reduce deer numbers that are damaging their crop yields. Some also have livestock they are willing to donate.

​MEAT PROCESSORS

Hunters are invited to donate their deer to approved meat processors that participate with FHFH. Individuals, businesses, churches, clubs and foundations make contributions to FHFH to help cover the costs of processing, packaging and freezing the meat.
