Bossier City, La. — Excitement is building as the KTBS‑3 St. Jude Dream Home giveaway draws near. The prize home, valued at $715,000, sits at 780 Duckwater Landing in the Duckwater Landing subdivision and will be awarded during a live drawing on Tuesday afternoon.
Home details
The two‑story custom residence offers a spacious open floor plan, a separate media loft, and a modern living area. A large kitchen includes a dedicated scullery for extra entertainment preparation. Outdoor amenities feature an extended patio with an outdoor kitchen, energy‑efficient smart‑home technology, and a Generac standby generator supplied by G&S Electric.
Fundraising roots
Thirty‑six years ago, the KTBS‑3 St. Jude Dream Home began as a local fundraiser to help children fighting cancer. It was the nation’s first program of its kind and has since inspired dozens of similar home‑giveaway campaigns across the country.
How to participate
Tickets are $100 each and can be purchased online or by calling 800‑724‑2423. All proceeds go to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which covers the full cost of treatment, housing, transportation and food for families so they never receive a bill.
Live drawing
The names will be drawn on Tuesday afternoon during a joint broadcast on KPXJ CW 21 and KTBS‑3 News. In addition to the home, several other prizes will be announced, making the event a major community celebration.
Local residents are encouraged to join the broadcast, support the cause, and help sustain the vital work of St. Jude, which relies on charitable contributions to provide life‑saving care to children with cancer.
