Kari Coffey a 37 year old lab assistant from Saginaw Michigan, is the Grand Prize Winner of the HGTV Green Home Giveaway. HGTV’s Chi-Lan Lieu knocked on her door to announce that she won the 2009 HGTV Green Home Giveaway grand-prize package valued at approximately $750,000 . The excitment was announced on HGTV on Sunday, June 28.
“I am overwhelmed right now,” said a shaky Coffey. “Completely overwhelmed!”
Kari’s name was drawn from nearly 17 million entries. She said she entered two or three times. Her grand prize package includes: the new, eco-friendly and fully furnished contemporary Spanish-style home situated in Tradition, Florida and a 2009 GMC Sierra Hybrid.
The prized home is located in Port St. Lucie, Florida. It includes three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and includes several energy and eco friendly features.
Tradition, Florida was the perfect community for our second annual HGTV Green Home Giveaway,” said Jim Samples, president of HGTV. “We wanted a community in a desirable location that showcases how you can live responsibly without compromising design aesthetics or modern amenities. The response to this year’s giveaway indicates that we were successful.”
