The Comcast Foundation President's Fund grant will support IBE's flagship program, the Youth Video Institute, which teaches teens how to produce and edit their own videos. More importantly, the teens develop leadership skills and a sense of responsibility. Our Human Resource team worked the Employment Fair recruiting prospective employees, and an enthusiastic group of volunteers helped out at our booth on the floor of the Exhibition Hall. Comcast also sponsored a special appearance by Michael Wellington and Maurice Jasper, hosts of TV One's "Wet Paint."

- Comcast sponsored the 8th Annual Mayor's Latino Forum, July 22 at Garfield Park. This cultural event attracted more than 8,000 attendees who enjoyed a free concert, health screenings, cultural exhibits and much more. Comcast volunteers manned a booth, educating the Latino community about the wide variety of products we offer in Central Indiana.
