Made it!

The target for our 8 day Radiothon for 98.5 Sonshine FM was $200 000. We had no idea if we would even get close.

With 3 hours still to go we’re at $207 081.

You can watch the tally rise at the website.

You have no idea how emotional it was when the numbers tipped over the $200 000 mark.

UPDATE: At the close of Radiothon the tally had risen to $256 983. Words will never express how it felt to see that kind of result. On the final day of this eight day Radiothon alone, supporters gave more than during any of the three or four day Radiothons held previously. We serve a great God and have many, many generous listeners and supporters.

  • I was listening throughout. Give thanks to our Great God for HIS provisions. Congratulations to the whole 98 5 team. It feels great to be part of the team as a listener & supporter & trainee too.

  • After having had the privilege of you personally showing me around and introducing me to some of the members at Sonshine FM, I wasn’t that surprised to read that your radiothon did so well.

    It has a bit of a family feel to the station, and I’m sure your regular viewers feel the same way and only too happy to support something that provides a great deal of entertainment and support to so many people in Perth.
