Your support of Chamber events helps us give back to the local business community. We’re pleased to launch the Growing Together Grants, offering three $1,000 grants to help member businesses improve their appearance, reach more customers, and grow.

Eligible projects may include storefront painting, signage, window displays, landscaping, exterior lighting, website updates, professional photography or video, printed marketing materials, branding, or advertising campaigns.

Who can apply: Kingsland/Lake LBJ Chamber member businesses in good standing for at least six months. Nonprofit organizations are not eligible. Each business may receive one award.

Applications open in November 16, 2026, and are due by January 15, 2027. Applications received after the deadline will not be accepted. To apply, describe what you plan to fund, who you hope to reach, how the project will help your business attract or serve customers, and how you’ll measure its impact. Include a project budget and a simple measure of results, such as customer inquiries, website visits, or customer feedback.

Selected recipients will be chosen by committee review and vote after the deadline, and grants will be presented at the Chamber banquet on March 4, 2027.

Grant funds are reimbursed after receipts are submitted and reviewed, up to $1,000 per recipient. Purchases made before the grant award are not eligible. Projects must be completed, with final receipts and a brief update or photo submitted, by July 31, 2027. Recipients will also have the opportunity to share their project in a five-minute presentation at the August 2027 board meeting.

We look forward to seeing the ideas our members bring forward and the ways these projects will help local businesses thrive.
