Comcast partners with Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute to help hispanic students

Last week, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI), the nation's premier Hispanic educational and youth leadership development organization, announced that the Comcast Foundation will sponsor three exceptional university students, chosen from a group of 34, through a $50,000 grant, to participate in CHCI's highly competitive Congressional Internship Program.

In this its 20th program anniversary, CHCI is adding a unique corporate component with Comcast's leadership and support, in which the interns will leverage Capitol Hill public policy experience with unmatched corporate mentoring through Comcast executives and business operations.

CHCI-Comcast interns will be assigned to Congressional offices on Capitol Hill for a period of eight weeks, from June to August, to learn first-hand about the federal legislative process and major issues pending before the U.S. House of Representatives.
