Background

Listener Support

Thank you for your interest in supporting The Star FM. This ministry depends on God to provide through the support of generous people like you!

We devote a few days each year inviting listeners to join our giving family. We call those days FriendRaiser in the spring, and Sharathon in the fall. Additionally, you’ll hear messages throughout the year thanking people who give, sharing stories of lives that have been impacted because of their support and inviting others (like you!) to join the giving family. Of course, you are welcome to make your gift any time you like!
