Topeka St. Jude Dream Home campaign helps fund patients education

TOPEKA (KSNT) - With just nine days until the official start of the Topeka St. Jude Dream Home campaign, we’re taking a look at all the children’s hospital provides.

Not only does the hospital cure illness to cure the child's illness, but it also cares for children as a whole. This is done using the "Imagine Academy at the hospital. The academy lets patients continue their studies, by giving them a place to complete their elementary through high school curriculum.

Stay tuned for the official launch of this year's Topeka St. Jude Dream Home. The home will be auctioned off and raise $700,000 for St. Jude.

The dream home can be found at 2635 SW Sherwood Park Drive in Topeka. It is being built by Drippé Homes and has an estimated value of $600,000.

Features of the dream home include three bedrooms, two bathrooms and an estimated 2,200 square feet. Free tours of the home run from July 12-28 at the following times:

• Fridays: 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
• Saturdays: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
• Sundays: Noon to 4 p.m.

Tickets for the 2024 St. Jude Dream Home will be available on our website in the coming days.
