Comcast says its commitment to communities goes beyond building the network and aims to increase economic mobility for the local community and its residents. It created Internet Essentials, a broadband adoption program that offers eligible households low-cost, high-speed internet and affordable computers. Additionally, Comcast has made significant investments into nonprofits focused on helping people build digital skills, expanding WiFi-connected Lift Zones and funding connectivity and internet adoption programs.
