One of Alabama’s most popular barbecue restaurants is a launching a statewide giveback program for children.

Full Moon Bar-B-Que launched “Backpack Blessings” Tuesday and ends Nov. 30.  The program will provide food and supplies to children across the state.

Multiple recipients will be selected weekly throughout the 12-week campaign to receive a Backpack Blessing valued at over $250 filled with a $25 gift card to Full Moon BBQ, $25 gift card to Walmart, Full Moon BBQ leather planner with calculator, USB flash drive memory stick, school supplies, hand sanitizer, disposable face masks, and an array of Full Moon BBQ swag items.

“The year “2020 has thrown many unexpected and undeserved curveballs at our communities; whether that be loss of jobs, virtual learning, or a general shift in daily activities,” Full Moon BBQ Co-Owner David Maluff said. “Full Moon BBQ is dedicated to the communities we serve and look forward to delivering food and supplies to children and their families while also providing a glimmer of hope during a tumultuous season.”

Full Moon BBQ will select multiple children weekly throughout the 12-week initiative to receive an Under Armour backpack shipped directly to their home.

“After the high demand from Full Moon BBQ’s ‘Feed a Friend’ giveback initiative during spring 2020, as a company and community partner we were focused on pushing forward with a new campaign to continue to keep our communities fed, both emotionally and physically,” Full Moon BBQ Co-Owner Joe Maluff said.
