Comcast announced today it will contribute $45,000 to Cabrillo College in Santa Cruz to establish the Comcast Journalism Scholarship.

The Comcast Journalism Scholarship is being established to support Cabrillo College Journalism students, who participate in local internships, with the goal of enhancing their educational opportunities, future job prospects and overall career development.
