Nick Jimenez- Comcast’s Director of Government and Regulatory Affairs
Comcast/Xfinity is committed to expanding internet access in our area and have announced the creation of seven “Lift Zones” in Colorado Springs and four in Pueblo. These “Lift Zones” offer free high-speed broadband connectivity and Comcast/Xfinity is planning on installing a total of 35 of these in Colorado and 1,000 of these across the country by the end of 2021. The pandemic and resulting remote access requirements brought about this commitment by Comcast/Xfinity and it’s meant to facilitate online activities such as online learning, job hunting or applying for jobs.
Theresa Strader- National Mill Dog Rescue
National Mill Dog Rescue was established in February 2007, in honor of a forgiving little Italian Greyhound named Lily.

Determined that her years of living in misery would not be in vain, Strader started NMDR, giving a voice to mill dogs across the country.
