Comcast NBCUniversal is committed to investing in causes for the long term, to make a lasting, tangible impact.

All year round we work with organizations like Boys & Girls Clubs, Big Brothers Big Sisters, City Year, the National Urban League, UnidosUS, Easterseals and The Arc to ensure we are addressing the real needs of individuals in our shared communities.
