Hunting Heritage Super Fund Banquets
The NWTF’s primary fundraiser is the Hunting Heritage Super Fund Banquet, where NWTF members and volunteers gather to have fun while purchasing firearms and merchandise that are exclusive to NWTF banquets.
The Hunting Heritage Super Fund Banquet program was created in 1983 as a fun way for members to support the NWTF, while introducing new people to conservation and the outdoors.
Money raised through the Super Fund program is used to conduct Hunting Heritage Super Fund projects, including conservation and outreach projects in the states raising the funds.
Through the Hunting Heritage Super Fund, NWTF volunteers and partners have spent more than $372 million upholding hunting traditions and conserving more than 17,000,000 acres (69,000 km2) of wildlife habitat.

The theme may be “Our family has a distinguished heritage that you must live up to” or “No matter what happens, we are fortunate to be together in this lovely corner of the earth” or “We have worked hard so that you can have the opportunities we didn’t have.””
—Calvin Trillin (20th century)
“I am advised that there is an unexpended balance of about $45,000 of the fund appropriated for the relief of the sufferers by flood upon the Mississippi River and its tributaries, and I recommend that authority be given to use this fund to meet the most urgent necessities of the poorer people in Oklahoma.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“At banquets surfeit not, but fill; partake, and retire; and eat not again till you crave.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
