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.

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

Camp was a blast this summer! My cabin was called the Inn, and I made lots of new friends there. My favourite activity was archery. I thought it might be hard, but it turned out to be awesome. I especially liked the game we played with the foam arrows—it made me laugh so much, and everyone was cheering each other on. I also tried rock climbing. It was really tricky, and my arms got tired, but I was proud that I kept pushing and climbed higher than I thought I could. The food at camp was yummy too. My favourite meal was on the very first night when we had spaghetti. It was so good after a big day of activities. Another big thing for me at camp was being around horses. Before, I was afraid of them, but spending time near them helped me realize how gentle and cute they are. Now I really like horses! I am grateful to have had this experience. I know I wouldn’t have been able to go without the help of one very kind person who paid for half of my camp, and UCB Radio, which covered the other half. You both gave me the chance to try new things, make friends, and create memories I will never forget. Thank you so much for making camp possible for me!

So I--I listen to all kinds of different music and I was just getting to the point where nothing was motivating me. Sure, the dance songs were great and the old 70's rock I grew up with is awesome and everything, but I'm like I need something fresh. I need something new. So I was scrolling around stations and honestly I can't even remember. What song it was, but it might have been, you say. And I'm like Ohh, I love this song, but I don't really want to listen to another pop station cause I only ever heard it on a pop station. Right? So I left it cause I love the song. And then another faith-based song came on. I'm like ohh. This is Christian rock. Yes. Finally something different and then it's been there ever since, like two months now. And every time I think, oh, maybe I'll go back to some Top 40 just to, you know, dance around the house or whatever. Something like don't stop praying comes on. I'm like. Oh, it's OK. I'll dance to this. It's bizarre. I go to bed at night and I'm singing one of the songs I wake up in the morning. It's in my head. I'm like this is why I listen to it. This is why.

I've always got in the background. I like your programs, but it's just my default station in the truck all the time driving around from site to site. So it just gets me something else to have playing instead of normal radio.
