Charisse R. Lillie

Lillie runs Comcast’s community investment, guiding the Foundation’s donations and partnerships with groups like City Year, the National Urban League and many others. This year she expanded the Comcast Digital Connectors program with One Economy Corporation, which promotes digital literacy and community service in low-income neighborhoods. And her work with community groups beyond the 9-5 is unparalleled. “We are a technologically advanced industry, led by ethical and visionary leaders focused on innovation and diversity,” she says. “Over my almost eight years in the industry, I have seen firsthand how the commitment to advancing women in the industry has grown.”
