Hopeland, You’re Still Needed: Appeal’s in Overtime

We’re a long way from our funding goal for 2024, so we're going into overtime. Hopeland, your support is needed.

We’re well below the $1,400,000 that is needed to keep your Hope on air.
Key points

So, we’re going into overtime.

Last week we had so many beautiful moments this week, like hearing from 7-year-old Georgia with a heart to see “the whole world go to Heaven”, and Michael who shared about losing his brother.

We always love chatting with you, Hopeland! It’s such a highlight for us.

But at the time of writing this article, we’re only 62% funded.

“The stories we’ve heard about Hope 103.2’s impact on so many lives in Sydney have been truly inspiring!” said Justin Kendall, Hope 103.2 Community Relations Manager.

“While we’re not quite at our funding goal for 2024 yet, we’re trusting in God’s provision in the weeks and months to come.

“There’s so much more we can do together to keep bringing Hope to people here in Sydney and beyond.”

Hope 103.2 exists for people like Michael

Michael blessed all of us when he shared with vulnerability and grace, the pain of losing his brother suddenly, and the legacy he left behind.

Michael’s story (below) is worth watching!


7-year-old Georgia gets it

When Georgia called into Hope Brekky on Friday, everyone had a big smile on their face (and maybe a few tears as well)! She shared her heart to see “the whole world go to Heaven” and reminded us what it’s all about – sharing the love of Jesus with the world.

Guess how many hampers you’ve made available this week?

Our partnership with Hands & Feet has been such a blessing. It’s one of the things you’ve mention frequently on the phone and in your comments this appeal.

While there won’t be any more hampers to partner with, during overtime, we’re celebrating over here!

Through your generosity, Hope 103.2 has partnered with Hands & Feet to provide over 3,300 hampers for families across Sydney, this Christmas.

Over 3,300 Hands & Feet hampers delivered.

“Through the Hope 103.2 November appeal, each of the 40 Greater Sydney local churches that participate in the Hands & Feet food program will receive 70 food hampers to distribute to families facing food security issues,” said Marc Eslick, from Hands & Feet.

“Every food hamper received by the 40 churches will provide fresh, frozen and pantry staples to each family for two weeks, which as we lead into Christmas will be such a blessing to every family.

“Each of the 40 participating local churches will provide 35 families facing food security issues food for 2 weeks leading into Christmas significantly relieving the pressure over this time.”

In total 1,400 families will receive a Hands & Feet weekly food hamper distributed through the 40 participating local churches, because of your generosity, Hopeland!

In summary: 1,440 families will be fed leading into Christmas, totaling 4920 people, and 9800 meals, all delivered through the local church.

Incredible.
