We appreciate Comcast and Misha McClure for your support in helping to advance the mission of such outstanding organizations. Your contributions truly make a difference 🫶
The impact our employees are able to make in our local communities by supporting organizations they are passionate about is what the holidays are all about! Today, we had an amazing time celebrating the incredible impact that we make through the Matching Gift program. Sporting our #MatchingGift shades, snapping fun pics at the photo booth, grooving to some cool beats, and enjoying delicious food - our Comcast employees heard from our Senior Leadership Team about the organizations they support through Matching Gift. We were also joined by nonprofit partners, who shared about the causes they champion with our employees. Thank you Combined Arms, Easter Seals Greater Houston, the Montrose Center, United Way of Greater Houston, AAMA, Latinos for Education, Dress for Success Houston, Houston Area Urban League, Urban Enrichment Institute, Big Brothers Big Sisters Greater Houston for joining us. It’s always a great time when we can give back together! For #GivingTuesday I’ll be able to triple my impact of my donation to Easter Seals of Greater Houston and Dreams Unleashed. #MatchingGiftWeek #CommunityImpact #iworkforComcast
