Mississippi resident is named winner of 2020 St. Jude Dream Home® Giveaway

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® announced that Raymond resident, Jeff Thompson is the winner of the 2020 Jackson St. Jude Dream Home®Giveaway. Raising more than $500 million for the patients and families of St. Jude, the St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway program is celebrating its 30th anniversary nationwide. Lucky winner Jeff Thompson is among many others in the Jackson market who purchased a ticket to support the lifesaving mission of St. Jude: Finding cures. Saving children.®

“I always support St. Jude and have bought a ticket for many years. I thought I may win a smaller prize, but I never imagined I would win the house. I am so grateful!”

Located in The Town of Lost Rabbit, Crosstown Builders and Deep South Custom Homes constructed the house that features an estimated 3,000 square feet and an estimated value of $615,000. The house has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a chef kitchen and water view.

The St. Jude Dream HomeGiveaway has become one of the largest single-event fundraisers for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital nationwide. This is the 18th house to be built in this market, which has raised $14 million. To date, 530 houses have been given away and the program has raised more than $455 million for St. Jude. Because a majority of St. Jude funding comes from individual contributors through programs like this, St. Jude has the freedom to focus on what matters most – saving kids regardless of their financial situation.

All proceeds will help ensure that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.

The 2020 Jackson St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway was made possible thanks to sponsors, including Crosstown Builders, Deep South Custom Homes, Southern Lifestyle Development, WLBT 3, MISS 103, Hallelujah 95.5, Interior Spaces, Juniker Jewelry Co. and The Garland Group—RE/MAX Alliance as well as national sponsors Brizo, Shaw Floors, Trane and Bosch.
