From Nasdaq:

Investors are encouraged to seek out dividend stocks that increase their payouts to combat the effects of inflation. Due to the erosion of purchasing power over time, increasing dividends can help maintain and grow income. Media giant Comcast (NASDAQ: CMCSA), Kimberly-Clark (NYSE: KMB), and Chevron (NYSE: CVX) are three stocks that have consistently raised dividends. Comcast offers a 2.6% yield; Kimberly-Clark yields 3.9%, and Chevron yields 4%. All three companies may announce dividend increases later this month. With respect to financials, it’s likely that each company will increase their payouts.; Comcast has maintained a 32% earnings payout ratio, Kimberly-Clark has increased its dividend payments for 51 years, and Chevron has increased its dividend for 36 consecutive years.
