KAFE 104.1 will accept entries for its Christmas Wish campaign starting at 6:00 a.m. on November 2, 2026, and ending at 8:59 a.m. on December 23, 2026. Listeners may submit entries through a form on www.KAFE.com or by mailing a written request to the station at 2219 Yew Street Road, Bellingham, WA, 98229. The campaign allows individuals to request gifts for themselves or for another person, such as a family member or friend.
The station has set the value of granted wishes between $10 and $10,500. These amounts are based on approximate retail value and are itemized for the recipient. Prizes are non-transferable and cannot be redeemed for cash. Winners are responsible for all state, local, and federal taxes on the value of the gift. The number of wishes granted will vary depending on the total volume of entries and available resources.
A panel consisting of KAFE staff and sponsor representatives will select which wishes to fulfill. Selections are made at the sole discretion of this group. Criteria include how well the wish is written, the completeness of the form, the specificity of the details, and the feasibility of granting the request. Pacific Northwest Media Group, the parent company, determines the final number of wishes granted.
Eligibility requires the submitter to be at least 18 years old and a resident of Washington state within 100 miles of the station transmitters. The person receiving the wish has no age limit. Listeners may submit multiple entries, but each submission represents one distinct wish. No purchase is necessary to enter. Entries must include full contact information and birthdates for both the submitter and the recipient.
Winners will be notified by telephone as soon as possible. These calls are recorded for broadcast on KAFE 104.1 and for posting on the station’s website. Wishes that the panel decides not to grant may be placed on a "Digital Wish Wall" at KAFEChristmasWish.com. These entries remain anonymous and are made available for local organizations or businesses to claim. The station connects pledging organizations with the wisher if a match is made.
Prizes must be picked up at the PNW Media Group offices during regular business hours. Business hours are Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Winners have 30 days to claim their prize. Employees of KAFE, its parent companies, advertising agencies, and contest sponsors are ineligible to win. Immediate family members of these employees are also excluded from eligibility.
