The Community Hero page celebrates the individuals and organizations making a lasting difference in Katy and the surrounding areas. Each month, we spotlight local heroes whose dedication, compassion, and hard work inspire others—whether they’re first responders, educators, volunteers, business owners, or everyday residents stepping up to help their neighbors.
