PHILADELPHIA, PA – April 17, 2024 — Audacy announced it will conduct 45 volunteer events nationwide to celebrate Earth Day as part of its 1Day1Thing Sustainability Initiative. The series of events, which will engage team members across the company, aims to positively impact the communities the company serves and the planet. Projects include tree planting, park and waterway cleanups, recycling projects and habitat restoration.

“We believe in the power of collective action to create positive change, and this unified mission to promote sustainability reminds us that one person doing one thing is good, but all of us doing our one thing together is better,” said Jaimie Field, Director of Sustainability, Audacy. “By engaging our team members nationwide and supporting local organizations, we aim to foster a healthier planet and stronger communities.”
