Division of Fish & Wildlife

During the deer seasons, the Delaware Sportsmen Against Hunger program encourages hunters to share their harvest by donating venison to Delawareans in need. The venison is distributed by DNREC’s Division of Fish and Wildlife to more than 30 charitable organizations throughout the state.

Hunters who are not lucky enough to harvest a deer are encouraged to help by donating money to the project. Funds donated are used to pay for direct program expenses and to buy additional food. No donations are used for administrative expenses.
