Comcast Doubles Support for Veterans Code Program at Mississippi Coding Academies

 

In 2019, Comcast partnered with Mississippi Coding Academies to launch Veterans Code, which provides tuition-free coding training and certification to veterans and military spouses.

In September, Comcast announced it would double its contribution to $40,000 this year, demonstrating its commitment to empowering our heroes with essential tech skills. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Comcast for their steadfast support of Mississippi Coding Academies.

Comcast’s dedication to supporting veterans is commendable, and their increased contribution is a game-changer for Veterans Code. This funding will enable us to reach more veterans, enhance our training quality, and expand our reach across Mississippi. It ensures that veterans and military spouses have the opportunity to thrive in the tech industry, supporting their transition to civilian life.

If you’re a veteran or military spouse interested in this opportunity, visit www.mscoding.org for program details and application procedures. Comcast’s continued support enables us to make dreams come true, and we’re grateful for their invaluable partnership. Thank you, Comcast, for your generosity in shaping the future of our heroes.
