Does any one know how the taxation on winning a "dream home" in a charity raffle is paid?

My city is currently selling rafle tickets for $100 to win a $500K dream home. The house is being donated by the builder, and all the ticket money is going to charity. I was just wondering how the prize tax on such a thing is handled. Is the winner suposed to pay income tax on the $500K value of the home?
