“The Comcast grant will provide significant aid for Latino small businesses to recuperate from the impacts of the pandemic,” said Claudia Caballero, Centro Hispano’s President and CEO. “We are happy to partner with Comcast and share in the vision of supporting small businesses and building up community staples through initiatives like Together Towards Tomorrow.”

“We are proud to support and uplift small businesses who have been impacted by the pandemic in Knoxville,” said Jason Gumbs, Comcast’s Regional SVP. “We are excited to support these businesses and are thankful to Centro Hispano de East Tennessee for partnering in this initiative.”

Comcast Business has developed several programs to support the recovery of small businesses adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Together Towards Tomorrow campaign was created by local Comcast Business employees in the Southeast who wanted to do even more for their customers and business partners.

As part of Together Towards Tomorrow, Comcast Business is working with local chambers and other community partners to identify businesses in need. Centro Hispano de East Tennessee in Knoxville helped Comcast identify area businesses who qualified for the program.
