Comcast Invests in the Future of Lone Star College Students

Tech leader Comcast has teamed up with Lone Star College Foundation to provide Lone Star College (LSC) students in Montgomery County with the technology and digital literacy skills they need to succeed. This partnership includes more than $100,000 in equipment for students at LSC-Kingwood and LSC-Montgomery.

Comcast donated 100 Dell laptops to LSC Foundation, helping income-constrained students pursuing tech-related degrees at LSC-Kingwood. These laptops will help students like Destiny Spearman, who said, “The new computer allowed me to download the software I needed to make my academic career easier. Before, I did a lot of designing on a tablet.”

Additionally, Comcast provided a $50,000 grant to launch “Maverick Minds,” a student-led podcast at LSC-Montgomery. This initiative will promote digital literacy and offer students a platform to learn about campus resources and student life.

As Comcast expands its Xfinity network into Montgomery and Kingwood, residents will gain access to high-speed internet, cable TV, and phone services. “At Comcast, we know that technology is the foundation for success in the digital economy,” said Misha McClure, Director of External Affairs at Comcast Texas. “We are thrilled to help students who experience financial barriers have the full benefits of technology and wish these students all the success in the world.”

This partnership highlights Comcast’s commitment to empowering students and enhancing connectivity in the community. To read more about the partnership, click here.
