MAPLE GROVE, Minn., June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Hanson Builders, a leading Minnesota home construction company, held a Floor Signing Event for its St. Jude Dream Home® Showplace on June 2, 2025. This event saw representatives from Hanson Builders, their trade partners, and sponsors write messages of hope and encouragement on the subfloor surface before the installation of the final flooring. It was an inspiring and joyful time for all those involved with the project as they look forward to the home’s completion.
This stunning new home in Maple Grove’s sought-after Evanswood neighborhood isn’t just a residence—it’s a beacon of hope. Built entirely to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®, its eventual sale will directly contribute vital funds to the life-saving mission of St. Jude: Finding Cures. Saving Children®.
A Mission of Hope
The construction of this St. Jude Dream Home® Showplace demonstrates Hanson Builders’ commitment to creating a positive impact in the community. Net proceeds from the sale of the home will be donated to St. Jude to support their mission of fighting childhood cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. St. Jude relies on donations such as these to ensure that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – so they can focus on helping their child live.
Timely Progress
Hanson Builders broke ground on the home in November 2024 and has made steady progress in the months that have followed. The home has been designed and built with Hanson Builders’ signature craftsmanship and sustainable building practices, with intention and care given to every detail. It is set for completion by end of June 2025.
Join the Fight Against Childhood Cancer
The St. Jude Dream Home® Showplace will be open to the public for viewing during the Fall 2025 Parade of Homes® as a Dream Home. Hanson Builders invites prospective homeowners to tour the home during this time and experience its beautiful design and innovative features. Those who purchase the property will acquire an outstanding home and contribute to the important mission of St. Jude.
Community members can also support St. Jude through direct donations, volunteering, and spreading the word about their mission. Learn more about the St. Jude Dream Home® Showplace and how you can make a difference at stjude.org/mplsshowplace.
