The retailer is sponsoring the open house in Lebanon, Ohio, of the St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway. This is the second time the Morris Furniture has sponsored the event.
The group hopes to raise $800,000 for childhood cancer research and treatment.
The home, valued at $340,000, features furnishings from Ashley’s Urbanology collection in every room.
“At Morris Furniture Company, we believe in giving back to our community,” said Larry Klaben, president and CEO. “St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is globally recognized for its research and treatment of children with cancer and other life-threatening diseases. As an official St. Jude Dream Home Giveaway open house sponsor, we are proud to support the work of this dedicated organization. Our exclusive Urbanology collection features fashion-forward furniture and unbeatable prices, and we are excited to showcase it in this beautiful home.”
As part of the partnership, visitors to the home’s open house running May 9 through June 7 will have a chance to enter to win a $10,000 shopping spree at Morris. Grand prize winners will be announced June 12.
A limited number of $100 raffle tickets are for sale for a chance to win the home.
