This loosely knit, nationwide organization, encourages hunters and meat processors to join forces in an effort to distribute game meat to the hungry. Since its inception in 1989, more than 1 million pounds of meat have been collected and distributed across the country.
Hunters participate in the program by donating game to participating meat processors. The hunter pays the standard processing fee and various food banks pick up and distribute the meat within days of its arrival.
The Nuge wins for Humanitarian purposes.
