A Message from Brian L. Roberts & Dalila Wilson-Scott
June 6, 2024
As we mark Comcast’s 60th anniversary, our commitment to working within communities and to building a more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable world has never been sharper.
We’ve accelerated our efforts to close the digital divide and open doors to economic mobility through Project UP, our $1 billion initiative to connect people to the Internet and create opportunities for the next generation.
In 2023, we advanced our longstanding commitment to help more people get and stay online by supporting national and local nonprofits that provide training and career development for learners at all levels. With nearly all jobs today requiring a digital skill, these programs are critical to creating pathways to economic success.
We are proud of how our platforms and resources help drive impact, from piloting American Sign Language (ASL) in our retail stores to curating multicultural content collections. Through Sky Up Academy and NBCU Academy, we’ve helped thousands of young people gain essential skills in media literacy and storytelling. And Comcast RISE has supported the growth of 13,500 small businesses since it launched three years ago.
An inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute remains a top priority. Initiatives such as Mental Health Week, DE&I Day, and our DE&I Speaker Series help to foster understanding, awareness, and allyship – and strengthen our dynamic culture of belonging.
At the same time, we are diligently looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint and address climate change – driving energy efficiency across our network and implementing sustainable practices in our operations. One highlight is the launch of our GreenerLight Program, which incorporates sustainability throughout the filmmaking process, from script to screen.
We are deeply grateful to our dedicated teammates and partners for their ongoing work within our communities to shape and imagine an extraordinary future.
