Hope on the Radio for Kelowna

Across Canada, thousands of people listen to UCB Radio each day for uplifting music, encouraging conversations, and reminders that God is with them.

Soon, that same voice of hope could be heard across Kelowna and the Okanagan.

UCB Radio has been approved to launch 88.1 FM in Kelowna, bringing worship music, prayer, Scripture, and encouragement to the community 24 hours a day.

But you don’t have to wait.

Take Hope With You Everywhere

The easiest way to listen is through the UCB Radio App.

Whether you’re commuting, working, or relaxing at home, hope is always within reach.

Sponsor the Kelowna Pre-Launch Stream

The Kelowna stream is already live through the UCB Radio App, online, TuneIn, and smart speakers. Before 88.1 FM officially launches, local businesses, churches, and organizations can help build momentum by sponsoring the pre-launch stream.

Your sponsorship helps keep hope playing now while supporting the fundraising efforts needed to bring UCB Radio to Kelowna on FM.

Sponsorship Opportunities

Major Sponsor — $5,000+
Includes stream ads until launch, logo recognition, launch email recognition, special recognition at the launch event, UCB Network on-air mentions, and 4–6 complimentary launch event tickets.

Community Partner — $2,000
Includes stream ads for 6 months, logo recognition, launch email recognition, special recognition at the launch event, and 2–4 complimentary launch event tickets.

Friend Sponsor — $1,000
Includes stream ads for 6 months, logo recognition, and 2 complimentary launch event tickets.

When the Kelowna station launches, it will bring encouragement, worship music, and the message of Jesus to the Okanagan every single day of the year.

To make that possible, we’re inviting people to help fund the first year of radio.

Each day of broadcasting costs about $1,000.

So we’re looking for 365 people, churches, businesses, and families who would be willing to become a founding partner and sponsor one or more Days of Hope.

When you become a founder your day(s) can be dedicated:

  • In honour of someone
  • In memory of a loved one
  • To celebrate a milestone
  • Or simply to help bring hope to the community

Your dedication will be shared on air, with a message like:

“Today’s programming is made possible by the Smith family, helping bring Christian radio to Kelowna.”

Imagine knowing you helped make a day of encouragement possible — a day when someone driving to work, sitting in a hospital room, or struggling through a difficult moment hears exactly the hope they need.

Will you become a Founding Partner and sponsor a Day of Hope?

Launching the station will require $365,000 to cover the first year of broadcasting.

Generous supporters have already begun stepping forward -- and 52 Days of Hope have already been sponsored.
That means that 313 days are still waiting to be filled.

$1,000 — Dedicate a Day of Radio

Or give any amount to help bring UCB Radio to Kelowna.

What Listeners Across Canada Are Saying

When it first started here in in Windsor, I was recovering from a bleeding in the brain, and so I have never stopped listening since then. During that time, like God was extremely close. So as I recovered, he stayed like very, very close. Like when I prayed it was answered basically like within seconds, most of it, some took a little bit longer, but the radio has helped me to keep my mind straight and basically why I have never stopped listening because it is encouraging and it helped me keep focused.

Yesterday I traded in my car for a new car, and when I traded in the old car I left the radio station on 103.1 UCB Radio, so the next person that got in the car would hear the hope of Jesus.

I love listening to UCB Radio because I know almost all the songs on there and I love singing along with the radio
