      HUNTING FOR THE HUNGRY 
"It is important," says Sandy Perrine from Manna Meal. "It saves us money. It's very important." The West Virginia Division of Natural Resource's, Hunters Helping the Hungry program, provides thousands of pounds of fresh venison to area food banks
The meat is put to good use. Manna Meal serves hundreds of meals a day, seven days a week. Last year they went through a ton of deer meet.
Hunters are doing their part when they donate a deer to the Hunters Helping the Hungry program. But, what the program really needs is cold, hard, cash. "We're at a critical situation in being able to continue the program. What we really need now is for people to donate money." said Snedegar. More money means more deer meat for the hungry, Snedegar told us. "Instead of having 2,500 deer like we did last year, we could probably have well over 5,000 deer. That just puts more food on the tables for needy West Virginians."
If you would like to make a tax deductible donation to the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources' Hunters Helping the Hungry, call Marshall Snedegar at 304-558-2771. Links to learn more
