I think there is another volunteer who is providing 32-bit builds.

Search for emacs-28.2-2-w32-bin.zip.  This is from the README.txt:

  emacs-28.2-2-w32

  A 32-bit Windows build of GNU Emacs version 28.2.  The MS-Windows
  binaries of Emacs available from the GNU FTP site include only a
  64-bit build, and cannot run on Windows before Windows 7.  This
  32-bit build runs on Windows XP and later, and is supposed to be
  able to run on Windows 9X as well (but was not actually tested
  there).

Best, Arash
