BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Full Moon Bar-B-Que is thrilled to announce that nominations for a child to receive a ‘Backpack Blessings’ are open today. ‘Backpack Blessings’ is an initiative that provides food, supplies, and hope to the children of Alabama and Mississippi through anonymous nominations. Full Moon BBQ will be accepting nominations through an online nomination form from July 6, through Sunday, July 16.
During this fourth year of the campaign, the Full Moon BBQ team has pledged to give fifty more backpacks than last year’s initiative, making it possible for 150 recipients to receive a Backpack Blessing just in time for school to start back in early August. Each Nike backpack will be filled with a Full Moon BBQ gift card, a Walmart gift card, and an array of school supplies, totaling a value of $200.
“We started Backpack Blessings back in 2020 and it has been an initiative near and dear to our hearts ever since,” states Joe Maluff, co-owner of Full Moon BBQ. “This fourth year is extra special because we are giving out more backpack blessings than we ever have before.”
“This is a tradition that the entire Full Moon BBQ team looks forward to every year,” states David Maluff, co-owner of Full Moon BBQ. “Every child deserves the opportunity to start their school year off prepared and confident. We’re thankful to have the resources and abilities to provide the children of Alabama and Mississippi with the tools they need to succeed.”
To nominate a deserving child in the state of Alabama or Mississippi, please visit the online entry form and complete the nomination with detailed and specific information explaining why your nominee is deserving of a ‘Backpack Blessing.’ There will be 150 winners, and each backpack will be available for pick up at the Full Moon BBQ location that they select through the nomination form.
