HOUSTON, TX — November 24, 2025 — Hope Media Group (HMG and 89.3 KSBJ parent organization) is celebrating an outpouring of generosity from listeners after its Worship 24/7 stations held the 6th annual Hope to the Hungry event on Thursday, November 6.
Partnering with six Rescue Missions and homeless shelters across the country, the one-day initiative raised $129,442, providing 38,006 Thanksgiving meals for individuals and families facing homelessness and food insecurity—a record for the event.
Throughout the day, Worship 24/7 shared powerful stories of men, women, and children whose lives were transformed by God’s love, starting with the simple gift of a meal. Listeners responded by calling in or giving online, with each donation going directly to the ministry closest to them: Union Gospel Mission Portland; Tacoma Rescue Mission; Blessings & Beyond in Spokane; Shepherd’s House in Bend, Oregon; Faith City Mission in Amarillo; and the Gospel Mission of Sioux City, Iowa.
“We call our initiatives like this ‘Worship in Action’—and that is certainly what happened,” said David Harms, Founder of Worship 24/7. “This event meets a great need at a time of year when we’re focused on Thanksgiving, and it came as the government shutdown caused a record number of people to seek help to put food on the table. As a network, it’s sometimes challenging to be local, but this event allows us to shine a light on a national issue while giving our listeners a chance to make a difference right where they live.”
Hope Media Group continues its commitment to sharing God’s love through community impact, partnerships, and life-changing stories that encourage listeners nationwide to live out their faith.
