Paragon Employees Lend a Helping Hand to DeKalb Community

05-05-15

Paragon Bank’s Small Business Capital Group recently participated in a service day through Habitat for Humanity of DeKalb County. Specifically, it was part of the Habitat DeKalb program known as “A Brush of Kindness.” The team spent the day helping clean and fix up the exterior of a local woman’s home.

“Our team was honored to be a part of this special day, and we hope the work and time invested leaves a lasting impact,” said Robert Shaw, Chief Executive Officer at Paragon Bank. “Giving back to the communities in which we work, while building relationships with the people in them, is what Paragon is all about.”

The woman living in the home is unable to move throughout her house without assistance, so she spends most of her time in a recliner, while people come by each morning and evening to drop off food for her. Because of her inability to get around, she asked for help improving the look of the exterior of her home.

The Paragon team stepped in and granted this request, as they spent the day working on large and small repairs. Some of the work included painting the front porch posts, as well as fixing and painting the wheelchair ramp and gate. In addition, the team completed an extensive amount of yard work, helping to transform the appearance of the entire property.
