Homes, valued between $300,000 and $600,000, are built in cities across the country in partnership with local home builders and businesses using mostly donated materials, supplies and labor. When complete, the homes are opened to the public for tours and given away through the sale of $100 raffle tickets.
Established more than two decades ago, the St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway program has built and given away more than 340 homes and raised more than $270 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
“For more than 100 years, Trane has been known for its reliability in providing home comfort to families with our heating and cooling products,” said Scott Martin, Vice President Marketing, Trane. “We are thrilled to announce our new partnership with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to provide lasting comfort for those families who win a St. Jude Dream Home, and ultimately support St. Jude in providing families with some level of comfort knowing that they will never receive a bill from St. Jude for anything.”
