iHeartMedia Philadelphia has been named a 2025 honoree of the Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia by the Chamber of Commerce for Greater Philadelphia, in partnership with Points of Light, the Philadelphia Foundation, and other local partners.

Modeled after Points of Light's national Civic 50 program, the regional initiative honors companies that demonstrate a strong commitment to civic engagement through the use of their time, talent, and resources to create positive social impact in the Greater Philadelphia region.

"iHeartMedia utilizes the power of audio and human connection to build deep and engaged relationships with our audiences," said Andrew Burge, Region President for iHeartMedia Philadelphia. "A big part of that mission is using our voice and actions to uplift and positively impact the communities we serve. We are proud of the work we've done-and continue to do-to ensure we reflect and support the diverse population of the Greater Philadelphia Region. We are truly honored to be recognized alongside other outstanding, community-minded companies with this distinguished award."

Honorees were selected based on their performance in four key areas of community engagement: investment of resources, integration across business functions, institutionalization through policies and systems, and impact measurement. The Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia recognizes businesses, nonprofits, agencies, and institutions with more than 10 employees operating across the 11-county region.

"The Chamber is proud to recognize iHeartMedia Philadelphia as a 2025 honoree of the Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia," said Chellie Cameron, President and CEO of the Chamber. "Each of this year's honorees are valued members of Greater Philadelphia's business community, exemplifying what it means to be a positive corporate citizen and demonstrating the power of service. We thank iHeartMedia Philadelphia for their efforts to drive impact and congratulate them on this tremendous achievement."

Honorees were officially recognized at a celebration event held Thursday, June 26, at the Cira Centre. The Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia Self-Assessment, used to determine awardees, was administered by True Impact, a firm specializing in social impact measurement and optimization.
