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.

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

365 Days of Hope

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 sponsor 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 sponsor one Day of Hope.

When you sponsor a day, it 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 sponsor a Day of Hope?

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

Generous early supporters have already begun stepping forward — and 57 Days of Hope have already been sponsored.

That means 308 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

Good morning. My name is Sheila, I'm from Chatham-Kent, and I just wanted to say how much your radio has done for me in my life. Two years ago in February, I was gonna take my life because I was in such a lost place. I lost a pregnancy, and I didn't have nowhere else to go. And I was questioning about God and I put your radio station on and the song Oceans (Where Feet May Fail) was playing and it just touched me and it helped me to find where I am today. And I cannot thank you guys enough. I recently had a baby in September of last year. She's 8 months old and I named her Michaela. It means gift from God because she surely is a gift from God. And I just wanted to thank you guys for giving me that second chance by playing these songs every single day. They're helping so many people out there and I really appreciate you guys. You guys have a blessed day and keep up the good work.

So much going on in the world today, you know, God is the only hope we have. And hopefully keeping this station on will provide that hope for parents that need it, and single parents, kids, everybody.

Kids go to Catholic High School and, you know, first year my daughter entered, she came from a public school into the Catholic system and she was honestly in her case, she would get on the bus and she was bullied every day. Someone who was in grade 10 and it was, it was awful. It was a challenging time. And, you know, I taught my, my son. He's 13 now, Grade 8. You know, last year he had a horrible experience that he kept to himself and he was being bullied. So you know, I I feel for this child and my heart just ugh. And I know, like the radio station is so impactful, if that is pouring into that child, then that's just an amazing thing that God is using in the times in this world when things are just so hard. Pours into that. So if we could up our giving by $10 a month, I just feel that just something we can make work, even though things are hard and I love this radio station. Our--like I said, our kids listen to it. Our teenagers, all teenagers, and they all listen to it and it's, it's impactful and even on our walk last night, me and my one daughter, she she brought the Earpods along and we each put one in our ear. We were listening as we were out on our on our walk last night. Right. And it it's moving in their lives. It moves in our lives. And I just want to keep that going for everybody out there.
