HUNTERS -- YOU CAN HELP THE HUNGRY

CONCORD, N.H. -- If you've had a successful hunting season and your 
freezer is chock full of meat, why not share the fall harvest with New 
Hampshire's hungry? Hunters can help the less fortunate by donating meat 
to the "Hunt for the Hungry" program coordinated by the New Hampshire 
Food Bank in Manchester. The program collects donations of whole or 
processed game animals for distribution to more than 270 food pantries, soup 
kitchens, homeless shelters and group homes statewide. 

Last year, Hunt for the Hungry took in more than 1,300 pounds of 
donated deer, bear, moose, duck and other game meat. The program offers 
packaging instructions and can pick up donations. To donate game meat, call 
Michele Garron of the New Hampshire Food Bank at (603) 669-9725.
