There are those in our communities who go without. Without shelter, without clothing, without food and without many other of life’s necessities. It is the mission of this organization to help ease the burden of those in our communities who go hungry.
Hunters for the Hungry, works closely with the Food Bank who provides staff to help with events and distributes the food donations. Hunters for the Hungry also enlist the help of processor’s, who prepare the game taken by hunters to be donated to the needy, some free of processing charges.
Fifteen years since its inception, Hunters for the Hungry Baton Rouge and in effort with Monroe have added dedicated volunteers in Alexandria, Lafayette, New Orleans, Shreveport, Natchez, Mississippi, and Houston, Texas to collect game and fish to help nourish families in their own communities.
