LAGRANGE – The LaGrange County Community Foundation awarded Hoosiers Feeding the Hungry a grant totaling $5,000.

These funds help to pay processing fees for donations of large game and livestock within LaGrange County with the meat being given to area hunger-relief agencies.

Hunters and farmers may donate, at no cost to them, by taking their large game or livestock to a participating meat processor in their area. The donation will be processed, packaged in 1- to 2-pound packages and frozen. Local hunger-relief agencies will be contacted for pick up and distribution of this nutritious protein back into the community.
