 ‘Hunters Feeding Michigan’ offers opportuning to help fight hunger 

    Help fight hunger and ensure Michiganders have access to a nutritious protein source when they need it the most by contributing to the DNR’s Hunters Feeding Michigan program. 

    The program makes a positive difference in communities across Michigan, connecting hunters, wild game processors and charities to feed those in need. 

    Hunters can share their harvest by donating their deer at a participating processor or by taking part in Hunters Feeding Michigan deer donation drives. We’ll be taking deer donations in several locations across the state – including Clare, Eau Claire, Escanaba, Gaylord, Howard City, Linwood and Sterling Heights – Nov. 21-23. 

    Each deer donated will provide an estimated 160 high-protein and nutritious meals. Thanks to the DNR’s' partnership with Feeding America and its collaboration with a statewide network of processors, venison donations go to Michigan residents in need. 

    Anyone can make a monetary donation to help cover the cost of processing donated deer on the Hunters Feeding Michigan donation webpage or the DNR eLicense website, at any DNR retail license agent location or on the Michigan DNR Hunt Fish app. 

    To learn more about the program or find a participating processor, visit Michigan.gov/HuntersFeedingMichigan.
