10 Years of Partnership

In 2010 Paragon Tattoo had just put a new location in Grand Terrace on La Crosse. 

Julius Vargas however, still had his first location in Moreno Valley. In November 2010, Paragon Tattoo contacted the Grand Terrace Woman’s Club, President Debbie Earle sat down with these amazing gentleman that wanted to give back, and what better way to do this than to help children, through our Child Help Program. This started a beautiful relationship with the tattoo shop and the Woman’s Club. This has spanned over ten years and each year these guys work especially hard one day a year doing a 3x3 tattoo for $20 for a new unwrapped toy, valued at $15. Each year they bring in between 200 - 250 toys. You can’t imagine the joy it brings to each and every one of these tattoo artists, knowing they helped a child have a very Merry Christmas.

I know a lot of people have issues with guys with tattoos, but I must tell you, these are the sweetest most caring men I have ever met. 

Julius Vargas is there for us every single year. In my book, he is Man of the Year! Thank you Paragon Tattoo for a wonderful 10 years of making a child’s Christmas!
