Hunters & Game Wardens

With Montana's abundant wildlife and long tradition of responsible hunting and fishing, the Montana Food Bank Network relies heavily on donated wild game to help fill our pantries. Whether you are a Montana hunter giving to your Montana neighbors, or an out of state hunter on the hunt of a lifetime, your donated meat will go directly to those who need it most in Montana. 

To donate wild game, please follow these guidelines:

• Game must be legally harvested and have appropriate tags
• If already cut and wrapped, must have been processed by a commercial processor
• Call 406-721-3825 x233 to arrange a processor to drop the harvested game to
• Take your harvest to the designated meat processor and pay the processing fees

 

No matter what your case, please contact Brent Weisgram at 1-800-809-4752 x-233 or bweisgram@mfbn.org and see if we can find a way to use it to help others across Montana.

Benefits of Donating

  • Food donors are protected from liability under the Federal Good Samaritan Law
  • Individuals can receive a substantial tax benefit from donating. Reduce dumping fees and help the environment.
  • It makes good business sense and demonstrates your company's concern for the less fortunate in your community.
