Deer donation program may be discontinued in West Virginia
West Virginia Division of Natural Resources may end the Hunters Helping the Hungry program due to funding gaps. The initiative relies on private donations and federal grants, with no endowment or corporate sponsorship yet in place. Since 1992 the program has yielded about 449,492 pounds of venison for the Mountaineer Food Bank and related pantries, feeding thousands of meals monthly.
