Lake Charles, LA [KNGT-FM] - The opportunity to own a brand-new home while supporting a meaningful cause is back, with tickets officially on sale for the 2026 Lake Charles St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway.

This year's featured Dream Home is valued at $615,000, and every ticket purchased helps fund the lifesaving work of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, which is located in Memphis, Tennessee. We have been involved with St. Jude for many years and have seen how their lifesaving research has helped kids here in Southwest Louisiana.

The annual fundraiser provides critical support so families receiving care at St. Jude never have to worry about paying for treatment, transportation, lodging, or meals while their child is battling cancer or another life-threatening illness.

Those who purchase a ticket early have even more chances to take home incredible prizes before the grand prize drawing. Anyone who secures a ticket on the campaign's opening day will automatically be entered into a special drawing for free groceries for a year, valued at $5,000, courtesy of the Dream Day Foundation.
