Since 2011, Internet Essentials from Comcast – the nation’s largest and most comprehensive Internet adoption program – has connected a cumulative total of more than 10 million people from low-income families to the Internet at home. To make matters worse, during the COVID-19 crisis, many at-risk students found themselves at home without an Internet connection or a laptop to use for distance learning. This circumstance has accelerated the need for more resources to address digital equity and fund Internet adoption programs. Over the next 10 years through Project UP – our $1B commitment to address digital equity and help build a world of unlimited possibilities – we'll reach tens of millions of people access the resources, skills, and tools they need to succeed in an increasingly digital world.

For a decade, Internet Essentials from Comcast has addressed the digital divide head on and has grown to become the nation’s largest and most successful broadband adoption effort. To make matters worse, the COVID-19 crisis put many students at risk and has only accelerated the need for digital equity programs. In other words, connectivity is more important than ever. Here’s what we’re doing to help.
