Sportsmen Against Hunger
For over 15 years, the Community Action Partnership of North Dakota Sportsmen Against Hunger program has grown and changed with the needs of the state. Food pantries continue to be in need of healthy sources of protein, particularly fresh meat. Perishable items are often the least donated, yet they are the most needed for preparing healthy meals.
Food insecurity is alive and well in North Dakota and our goal is to increase the amount of legally-obtained game meat donated to food pantries statewide. Sportsmen Against Hunger is proud to bring together willing hunters, happy to donate, and those who need nutritious protein sources the most. We are able to accept most legally-obtained wild game, but feel free to call us if you have any questions at 701-232-2452.
