HUNTERS

Feeding New York State Venison Donation Program

It is easy to join us in the fight against hunger. The process is as simple as dropping your deer off at a registered meat processor. The venison from donated deer is processed and distributed to food pantries across the state.

HOW TO DONATE YOUR DEER

You can help feed your hungry neighbors throughout New York by taking four simple steps.

  1. Donate any legally harvested deer by dropping it off at a participating processor.
  2. We suggest you call one of the participating processors before dropping off your deer to ensure they can accept your deer.
  3. Please handle the carcass as you would for your own family.  
  4. When dropping your deer off at a processor, please complete the log sheet indicating your desire to donate the deer. The donated deer will be processed and the venison will be distributed to food pantries and food banks to help feed hungry New Yorkers.

NON-TOXIC AMMUNITION

Lead ammunition can result in small fragments being passed on to humans. Please consider using non-toxic ammunition; even small traces of lead may be toxic to humans, and the effects are irreversible.

MAKE A FINANCIAL DONATION TO THE DEER DONATION PROGRAM

If you don’t have a deer to donate, but want to help with this effort, please consider giving a few dollars to support this program. Your contribution will help us process more venison than would otherwise be possible. You can donate online or mail a check to:

Feeding New York State

33 Elk Street
Suite 203
Albany, NY 12207

Please make your check payable to “Feeding New York State” and add “Venison donation” in the memo field so we can apply your gift to the venison program.
