Comcast to give $1M to BIPOC-owned businesses in Chicago

Comcast RISE, which stands for Representation, Investment, Strength and Empowerment, is part of a three-year, $100 million diversity initiative launched by Comcast NBCUniversal last summer. Since then, Comcast has awarded two rounds of free consulting, media and creative production services to Black-owned businesses, including dozens in the Chicago area.
