KFYR-TV, Paramount Builders, and many Bismarck-area contractors have teamed up to raise money for the Shriners Children`s Hospitals with the Charity Home. Once it`s built, people will be able to buy $5 tickets to tour the fully stocked and decorated home in south Bismarck. The money from those tours will be given to Shriners.
One cutting edge feature of the home is its insulation system. It includes foam insulation in the foundation and walls, insulated wall panels, and a special lining in the attic. The builders say it`s so efficient that it can cut energy costs by 40-60%.
Scott Stoeckel of Paramount Builders says, "On a typical application on a super insulated home, you don`t have to have such a large heating and cooling system. It`ll run much more efficient as well."
Once the tours are over, the home will be sold. We`ll have future updates on the Charity Home project on television and on our website.

Now this is Thinking out of the box by the people involved. Let me know if you have a new or different way to raise money for Shriners Hospital! G-Wiz
