Bass Pro Shops has partnered with some of the other local orgs such as Farmers/Hunters for the Hungry (FFHH), Hunters for the Hungry and Hunters Harvest a commitee of the 'Get Together organization. Since we have worked with them in the past this could go to further solidifying our stance with them.
Houston area:
Most of the ministries listed here already take game from the Hunters harvest organization. The list is extensive. Some charge a $30.00 fee, most require at the minimum that the meat be processed or you can work with the processor list below. http://www.faithhouston.com/
Here is a list of participating Wild Game Processors state wide for any shelter/ministry that takes wild game:

Another note since it was brought up about liability:
This law protects food donors: The Federal Bill, Emerson Good Samaritan Act of 1996, (42 U.S.C. Section 1771 et. seq), protects businesses, nonprofit organizations and individuals who donate food in good faith from civil or criminal liability should such donated food later cause harm to a recipient.
