About the Program

The Katy Times, a family-owned local multimedia company, has established a Community Grant Program to assist locally-owned businesses affected by the COVID-19 crisis. We understand what you are going through and have stepped forward to support our community.

Recipients of our community grant program will be awarded a dollar-for-dollar match for qualifying advertising and marketing plans, up to $7,500 per business. Matching funds are available for print, digital, social media, and other marketing programs. 

Businesses located within the Greater Katy Area will receive priority approval.

Together, we will get our community moving again!
