Hunters for the Hungry Program

Attention hunters!

Hunters for the Hungry, is a cooperative program between The Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife and The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) within The Department of Agriculture. This program provides a means for hunters to donate all or a portion of their hunt to a family in need.

This program has been extremely beneficial to our citizens providing lean, high protein meats to voluntary feeding programs and to consumers with a medical necessity.

Those wishing for more information on this program may call toll free 1-888-4DEER-ME (433-3763) or visit: http://www.maine.gov/agriculture/co/tefap/index.html.
