Committed to supporting those who serve our country, Dickey's Barbecue Pit, is hosting its first-ever National Armed Forces Franchise Fee Voucher Giveaway.

From May 1-15, the Texas-style barbecue brand is honoring active military and military veterans by giving them the chance to win a voucher redeemable toward a single franchise fee of a Dickey's Barbecue Pit restaurant, which is about $20,000, according to a company press release.

"Supporting those who risk their lives to keep our country safe is part of our roots," Roland Dickey Jr., CEO of Dickey's Capital Group, said in the release. "Ever since WWI Veteran Travis Dickey founded the very first Dickey's Barbecue Pit in 1941, our brand has been devoted to honoring America's heroes. We've seen that military personnel make successful franchise owners, so we're thrilled to host this contest and welcome another former or current member of the U.S. military to the Dickey's franchise family."

To enter the giveaway, military personnel must be prospective franchisees and meet Dickey's standard franchise qualifications specified on franchise.dickeys.com. Contestants may enter to win by visiting franchise.dickeys.com/request-more-info and providing the requested information. Dickey's will then select one lucky winner at random on or before May 31.

All contestants must be a U.S. citizen, 18 or older and an individual or shareholder of the entity entering the Giveaway. The winner will receive a credit with Dickey's in the form of a voucher, redeemable toward the franchise fee of a single new Dickey's Barbecue Pit restaurant that may be developed or purchased by the winner in the U.S.

Dickey's operates over 500 locations in 44 states.
