[Mobile, AL – September 14, 2026] – This Halloween season, Fuse Project is bringing back the 4th annual BOO! Project, turning neighborhood Halloween fun into a powerful way to support children’s education.

BOO! Project invites community members to spread Halloween cheer while making a meaningful impact. This year, supporters can choose how they want to BOO—surprise a neighbor with a traditional BOO! Kit, complete with a spooky yard sign and festive goody bag, or BOOst a student by directing their purchase toward specific programs supporting students in the Avenue community. Traditional BOOs are secretly delivered to a friend or neighbor’s doorstep, continuing the fun as each recipient passes on the BOO.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

● Choose How You Want to BOO: Purchase a traditional BOO! Kit or choose to BOOst a student online beginning September 16. BOO! Kit deliveries begin September 30, with kits available throughout Mobile and Baldwin counties.

● BOO! Your Friends and Neighbors: Once your kit arrives, it’s time to surprise your neighbors! Place the BOO! sign in their yard and leave the treats at their door. Then, watch as the Halloween fun spreads throughout your neighborhood.

● Share the Fun: Capture the moment by taking photos and videos of your BOO! escapades. Share them on social media using #BOOProject2026, and don’t forget to tag @fuseproject on Facebook and Instagram to encourage others to join in the fun.

● Make an Impact: Proceeds from BOO! Project fund educational opportunities for students in the Avenue community. This year, supporters can make that impact go even further by choosing to BOOst a student, directing their entire purchase toward a specific program or need of their choice.

“BOO! Project is more than a fundraiser; it’s a chance to make memories, enjoy the Halloween spirit, and make a lasting difference for local children,” said Ann-Brooks Morrissette, Executive Director of Fuse Project. “We encourage everyone to join the fun while giving back to our community.”

BOO! Project is part of Fuse Project’s Light the Fuse annual fundraising campaign with generous support from our sponsors, Panini Senior Bowl, Momentum Promotions, Toomey’s Mardi Gras, and Print King. Kits will be available for purchase through October 31, 2026, or until supplies last.
