2013 St. Jude Dream Home Update

As you may or may not know, Summit Custom Homes is building the St. Jude Dream Home for a third year in a row. We are so honored to be partnered with St. Jude and to be building the 2013 St. Jude Dream Home. Our team is humbled to be working with an organization that does so much for children: St. Jude is internationally recognized for its pioneering research and treatment of children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases, and they share their discoveries with scientific and medical communities around the world. What an awesome organization to be partnered with!

You may have seen this sign on our website recently:

We certainly are proud !

Did you know that it takes $1.7 million PER DAY to run the St. Jude Research hospital? Our goal is to raise $1,000,000 this year - a million seems like a lot, but that pales in comparison to how much it takes on a daily basis to run the hospital. Every dollar counts though, and we are thrilled to do what we can to help.

Raffle tickets are just $100, and will give entrants the chance to win the Dream Home, which is valued at over $450,000. In addition to the home, those who purchase tickets will be entered to win a Chevrolet Sonic, courtesty of Molle Chevrolet or one of 18 other great prizes, all valued at over $1,000! Some of those include a Visa gift card, courtesy of All My Sons Moving & Storage, a $1,000 gift card to Paradise Nursery, and a one year golf membership, courtesy of Creekmoor (which is where the St. Jude Dream Home is being built!).

Tickets will go on sale April 4, 2013 and can be purchased at www.DreamHome.org or you can purchase your ticket during the Spring Parade of Homes at the Dream Home from April 20-May 5.

The Dream Home, which will be raffled off to one lucky winner, will be open during the following times:

April 20 - May 5 (Parade of Homes)

11 a.m. - 6p.m. daily

May 5 - June 16 -

Saturdays 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.

Sundays Noon - 5 p.m.

We would like to thank our valued trade partners who have so generously donated time and materials to build the home. The Dream Home would not be a reality if it weren't for your generosity and support! You can see a list of those trade partners here.

Here are some recent photos of the construction of the home:
