Posted on: Apr 08, 2026

Whitetails Unlimited recently granted $841,768 to various mission-related projects during the first quarter of 2026. These grants fall within Whitetails Unlimited's four pillar programs: Outdoor Education, Hunting Preservation, Habitat Enhancement, and Shooting Sports Advancement. WTU's DEER (Developing Educational and Environmental Resources) Program, which focuses on facilitating the education of youth and their families to the great outdoors, expended the greatest amount of grants, followed by the Preserving the Hunting Tradition Program.

Education is a top priority for Whitetails Unlimited. The DEER Program consists of organizational initiatives and activities such as events, activities, and educational elements that expose participants to conservation, fishing, hunting, shooting, wildlife management, and environmental education. As an advocate of hunter safety, Whitetails Unlimited is also at the forefront of providing support to hunter education and shooting instructors.
