Introducing the Local Advertising Grant

For years, you have put your trust in Metroland to help you reach your community. Now, during these hard times, we want to give back to all the local businesses that rely on us daily to advertise products and services. We know that owners of small- and medium-sized businesses are worried, so we have created the Local Advertising Grant, which offers up to $1 million in matching funds to ensure you can still reach your customers and continue to thrive in your community.
