SHREVEPORT, LA - The Minden St. Jude Auction is one of the biggest in the country. In fact, the Minden event raises more money for St. Jude, per capita, than any other city in the United States. This year, there is no shortage of amazing raffle items.

The Grand Prize is a 2025 GMC Yukon or $50,000 in cash. Tickets for this raffle are $100 dollars.

But the prize I think is among the coolest I have ever seen is the playhouse. It's called the Devereaux and this tiny place is gorgeous.

This amazing place even has a front porch ready for your rocking chair. I can imagine sitting on that porch with a tall glass of sweet tea. They know how to do things big in Minden.
