Dreamscape Raffle

Make Your Neighbors Green With Envy

The Dreamscape Makeover Raffle is Keep Akron Beautiful's annual fundraiser that was developed 8 years ago to help support our public land beautification program, Flowerscape. The Dreamscape Makeover is a raffle where one lucky winner will recieve a professionally designed front or back yard makeover, valued at $10,000. Raffle tickets are $25 a piece or 5 for $100

Every dollar raised from this fundraiser goes to help fund and support the cost of flowers, materials, and Flowerscape crew that make these 39 Flowerscape sites so radiant and beautiful. The annual budget for the Flowerscape program is around $150,000!

Our first Dreamscape raffle was in 2004 and we raised over $20,000 for the Flowerscape program. In 2011 Keep Akron Beautiful sold 1,138 tickets and raised $24,460 that will help support the Flowerscape program.

In 2011, Keep Akron Beautiful and the Flowerscape crew planted 26,407 flowers with a total cost of over $18,888. Since the start of the program in 1982, over 1 million flowers have been planted to beautify the City of Akron!

We have  27 local Vendor Partners who volunteer their time, crew labor and resouruces to help make our Dreamscape Raffle a success.
