FHFH Awarded Grant by Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s Outdoor Fund

The Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s Outdoor Fund has awarded a grant to the national Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry (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 while helping people across the nation see and understand the incredible value of the various “hunters for the hungry” programs.

“We are so grateful for this generous grant from the Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s Outdoor Fund,” said FHFH Executive Director Josh Wilson. “This support helps us process additional deer for the needy in underfunded areas and communities, and advocate for greater hunter awareness and participation with venison donation programs like FHFH.”

Guided by the visionary leadership of Bass Pro Shops founder Johnny Morris, the Outdoor Fund empowers Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s over 200 million passionate customers to support conservation efforts by rounding up their purchases. Rallying passionate customers, alongside dedicated team members, industry partners and leading conservation organizations, Bass Pro Shops is creating North America’s largest conservation movement to collectively shape the future of the outdoors and all who love it for generations to come.

About FHFH – People across America who struggle with food insecurity are often desperate for meat and protein items. FHFH gives nutritious meat to 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 22.5 million meals has been donated, processed and distributed by FHFH since 1997. The organization welcomes new supporters and volunteers to join the cause.
