In support of Comcast Cares Day, one of the country’s largest days of corporate volunteerism, more than 400 Comcast and NBCUniversal volunteers came together to beautify Barack Obama Global Preparatory Academy as part of Comcast Cares Day and Green is Universal’s Earth Week on Saturday, April 27.
More than 70,000 Comcast and NBCUniversal employees and friends participated in hundreds of projects across the country.
