Entercom is the radio company that owns KYW Newsradio and 234 other stations nationwide.
While the local park will feel the impact, the effort is much broader.
"In almost 50 markets across America, almost 3,000 people, they are all making a difference in their community," said Jaimie, referring to Entercom locations nationwide.
"We're just so thrilled to have them out because it takes a lot of man power," said Meg Holsher, who works at the Fairmount Park Conservancy.
She says the nonprofit provides the materials and training, and corporate partners like Entercom provide the workers. And the help is game-changing, week to week.
"This is an area heavily trafficked by families, so we like to keep it clean," said Holsher, "we would love to have them here working every week!"
"It really is a part of our values as a company," he said. "It's an honor and privilege to be broadcasters, so we are out here in force trying to make Philadelphia an even greater place."
As part of the company's 1 Thing initiative, employees use less paper at the workplace, employ reusable water bottles and dishes and much more as part of Entercom's pledge to act as an environmentally responsible corporate citizen.
