Audacy has released its 2021 Social Impact Report to spotlight
key achievements from its ongoing company-wide Audacy Serves
initiative. The report encompasses the company’s commitment to
several pillars of impact: diversity, equity and inclusion, mental
health, civic education, the environment, children’s health, and
veterans and service members.
Key highlights include:
Diversity, Equity &
Inclusion
- Eight new fellows – recent graduates from historically
underrepresented communities within the industry have joined the
team in a variety of sales, marketing and content roles. Yearlong
fellowship experiences include curated on-the-job learning and
growth opportunities.
Mental Health
- Continuing its powerful 5th annual “I’m Listening” broadcast
with influential names like Doja Cat, Luke Combs and Demi Lovato,
who shared their personal struggles with mental health. The event
helped Audacy connect with more than 200 million people and raise
more than $800,000 for the American Foundation for Suicide
Prevention.
Civic Education
- Audacy’s “Engaged Impressions” study found that 71% of weekly
radio listeners tune in because they feel the content is relevant
to their community. Research like this indicates that listeners
continue to trust local media.
- Audacy further invested in its news business, adding over 50
journalists in eight of its newsrooms across the country in an
effort to meet that demand for trusted quality content.
Environment
- Bringing together team members across its 47 local markets for
the annual 1Day/1Thing volunteer event and partnering with local
organizations for one day of massive impact with nearly 3,000
cumulative hours served.
Children’s Health
- Raising over $14.2 million to support life-saving care for
families in local communities via over 30 children’s health events
supporting local hospitals, children’s health organizations and
national children’s health cancer research.
Veterans and Service
Members
- Audacy Seattle raised more than $1 million to date benefitting
Friends of Fisher House Puget Sound, a nonprofit organization that
raises funds and awareness to provide operational support to the
programs of four existing Fisher Houses in Washington state.
