The 2024 St. Jude Dream Home is located at 151 Bentley Drive in Perrysburg's Summerfield subdivision near Five Point Road and North Dixie Highway.

After months of construction by Buckeye Real Estate Group and other community partners, the St. Jude Dream Home is complete.

The home is valued at $500,000, but thanks to the community's generosity, it is once again a zero-cost build, which means all of the money raised will go directly to helping further the mission of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

About the Toledo St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway

Now in its eighth year with WTOL 11, the Toledo St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway is one of the fastest-growing St. Jude Dream Home giveaways in the nation. The success has been incredible, raising a total of over $11.5 million over the course of the campaign.

In March, our WTOL 11 team visited St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the lifesaving work being done there and shared nationwide.

The Toledo St. Jude Dream home has true local connections going back generations to Toledo’s Danny Thomas.

With this loyal connection to our history, this community has pushed the Toledo St. Jude Dream home to one of the largest and fastest-growing programs in the entire country.

We won’t stop there. As Thomas said, “No child should die in the dawn of life.” All the money raised goes to support the research at St. Jude that is uniquely and openly shared to accomplish Thomas' bold goal.
