Dreamscape makeover

Make Your Neighbors Green With Envy

Dreamscape Makeover Raffle is Keep Akron Beautiful's annual fundraiser that was developed 7 years ago to help support our public land beautification program, Flowerscape. 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 fundriaser goes to help fund and support the cost of flowers, materials, and Flowerscape crew that make these 41 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 2010 Keep Akron Beautiful sold 988 tickets and raised $21,380 that will help support the Flowerscape program.

In 2009, Keep Akron Beautiful and the Flowerscape crew planted over 32,000 flowers with a total cost of over $23,000 dollars. Since the start of the program in 1982, over 1 Million flowers have been planted and beautifying the City of Akron!

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