VP, Community Investment for Comcast Corp., President, Comcast Foundation
Lillie is a giver. In fact, she’s given away more than $300 million to Comcast’s charitable partners. She’s also donated time by organizing Comcast Cares Day, 24-hours devoted to community projects and one of the nation’s largest corporate volunteer events. This year the effort went global and included programs in France, Germany, England and New Zealand totaling more than 85,000 participants. For Lillie, diversity‘s success hinges on inclusion. Without it, its “benefits to the business will be unrealized.”
