Los Banos man wins St. Jude Dream Home

Written by Business Journal staff

A Los Banos man got some great news this weekend upon winning the grand prize in the 8th annual St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway, a charity drive that has raised over $1 million this year to help young cancer patients in the Central Valley.

David Winterstein's winning $100 ticket was pulled Nov. 13 for the $430,000 house located in the Chestnut Grove community in northeast Fresno.

The home, built by local homebuilder DeYoung Properties, measures 2,019 square feet with three bedrooms, two baths and a formal dining room.

The home also includes a three-car tandem garage, an open-air courtyard, a covered patio and three gas fireplaces and comes complete with an alarm system and energy-efficient appliances.

Nineteen other prizes were given away during the drawing held by KMPH. St. Jude patients Sarah Bordona and Audra Koelewyn pulled out the winning tickets for a Pandora bracelet from Rogers Jewelers, a home plate box for a Fresno Grizzlies 2012 game, a $1,000 jewelry gift from the Fresno Coin Gallery and other giveaways.

“We are very appreciative to DeYoung Properties, KMPH FOX 26, KJUG 106.7, the Z 104.9, Univision Radio, The Fresno Bee, Business Street Online, Mor Furniture, Epsilon Sigma Alpha, Alpha Delta Kappa, Fresno Coin Gallery, Fresno County Federal Credit Union, Holiday Inn Riverpark, Rollo Latino Magazine, national sponsor, Brizo and the volunteers, local businesses and local residents whose generous support made this event possible,” said Clovis City Councilman Bob Whalen, Central Valley St. Jude Dream Home Chairman, in a press release.

Founded by Danny Thomas in 1962, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital has treated more than 24,000 young cancer patients from the Central Valley and across the world at no cost to their families.
