This week, we gave away $5,000 in fuel relief, but what filled us most was hearing from you.
At Sonshine, we believe small moments of encouragement can make a big difference. That is why we created Sonshine’s Big Fill Up, a week dedicated to bringing a little practical relief to Perth families during a season when the cost of living is being felt by so many.
Across the week, we gave away $5,000 in fuel, with 50 listeners each receiving a $100 fuel voucher. For some, it helped cover the school run. For others, it eased the pressure of getting to work, appointments, sport, church, the shops, or simply moving through another busy week.
We know a fuel voucher does not fix everything. But we also know that sometimes, a little relief can go a long way.
Hear it from the community
Thank you for filling us up
To everyone who called the station, entered online, shared their story, or answered the question, “How does Sonshine fill you up?” — thank you.
Your answers stopped us in our tracks.
Again and again, we heard that Sonshine fills you up through community. Through connection. Through encouragement. Through the voices you hear each day. Through music, stories, faith, laughter, prayer, generosity and hope.
That means the world to us.
Your resilience, honesty and kind words reminded our whole team why local, community-supported radio matters. Sonshine is not just something you listen to. It is something we build together.

From our heart to yours
Sonshine’s Big Fill Up was about more than petrol. It was about showing up for our community in a practical way. It was about recognising that families across Perth are carrying real pressure, and that encouragement needs to be more than just words.
To our winners, we are so glad we could play a small part in lightening the load.
To every listener who entered, thank you for trusting us with your stories.
To everyone who tunes in, supports, shares, gives, prays and keeps this station going, thank you. You are the reason Sonshine can continue to bring hope, encouragement and connection to Perth every day.
As we head into Sonshine’s June Appeal, we would love you to consider making a tax-deductible donation to help keep this station strong. Your support helps us continue filling Perth with hope, not just during one campaign, but all year round.
Thank you, Perth. You fill us up more than you know.
