Community Commitment in Action
GCI is committed to leading philanthropy efforts across Alaska. Through its GCI Gives program, GCI contributes over $2 million each year to more than 200 Alaska nonprofit organizations. GCI awards 50 scholarships to Alaska graduating seniors who are pursuing STEM education and launched the GCI Suicide Prevention Grant Program to support local efforts to reduce suicide rates in Alaska. Each year, GCI provides every employee with 16 hours of paid leave to volunteer with local organizations and give back to their communities.

Qurate Retail Group is committed to giving back to the communities it serves, through corporate philanthropy, product donations, team member giving, and volunteerism. Over the years, the company has generated hundreds of millions of dollars for thousands of charities worldwide through direct grants, in-kind donations, fundraising, volunteering, and cause marketing initiatives such as HSN’s St. Jude’s Thanks and Giving campaign, Beauty with Benefits, and Shopping4Good at QVC Italy.
Qurate Retail Group launched its Small Business Spotlight program in 2020 to help small businesses challenged by the pandemic, and conducted a second phase later that year with about 40 Black-owned businesses. Since then, the program has continued to offer diverse small businesses on-air and digital exposure through QVC, HSN and Zulily platforms, along with various other pro-brono mentorship and consulting services. As of June 2022, Small Business Spotlight has provided over $7 million in donated airtime, digital support and other pro-bono, in-kind services to more than 250 featured entrepreneurs, with many on-air participants having reported increased sales and improved customer engagement.
