Across Greater Philadelphia, New Jersey and northern Delaware, Comcast has been working with community partners to launch more than 100 WiFi-connected Lift Zones with more being added over the coming weeks and months.

What are Lift Zones?

Lift Zones establish WiFi-connected safe spaces in community centers that serve everyone from students and adults to veterans and seniors – and many others. Nationwide, Comcast has set a goal to launch 1,000+ Lift Zones by the end of 2021. Comcast recently announced a $1 billion investment over the next 10 years to help further close the digital divide as part of the 10^th anniversary of its Internet Essentials program, which includes investing in Lift Zones. This effort is part of our ongoing commitment to help connect low-income families to the Internet and provide resources to help them fully participate in educational opportunities and the digital economy.

Lift Zones complement Comcast’s Internet Essentials program, which has helped connect millions of low-income people to the Internet at home since 2011. Working with its network of nonprofit partners, Comcast is providing free WiFi hotspot connectivity in community centers with access to hundreds of hours of digital skills content to help families and site coordinators navigate online learning, training and programming offered at these centers.

“The pandemic has put many low-income families at risk of being left behind, and we’re proud to work with community partners to support them with Internet adoption and digital equity programs like this one,” said Jim Samaha, Senior Vice President of Comcast’s Freedom Region. “We hope these Lift Zones help families across our region stay connected to vital resources.”
