Without the
Food Banks, the Venison Donation Program would have a difficult
time getting the ground venison to those in need. The food
banks pick up the ground venison from the participating processors
and distribute it through its member agencies (soup kitchens,
food pantries, churches, senior living, etc.) to those in
need. Your Deer, Your Community, You BET! |
