Charisse R. Lillie

VP, Community Investment, Comcast/EVP
Comcast Foundation

Lillie this year spearheaded the rollout of the Comcast Digital Connectors program (in partnership with One Economy Corporation), which expands digital literacy and promotes broadband adoption among low-income communities.

Why Comcast is Involved in Charitable Giving: “Comcast’s community investment activities are a vital part of our business strategy. Brian Roberts has said that our community investment is as important as our investment in technology. When Ralph Roberts founded Comcast, he was committed to creating a culture that fostered community service and employee engagement. It is imperative that the cable industry give back to our communities.”
