One of the small businesses receiving assistance is Frank Pintabone's Integrity Lawncare.
Pintabone, former president of Easton Area School Board, explained what the program meant to him during the Lehigh Valley Leadership Dinner,which was held at Artsquest last night.
Of the $6 million lent, only four percent have defaulted over the years.
(Frank is wearing the green shirt, and Alan Jennings is to his right. I apologize but have no names for the other two gentlemen.)

"Integrity Lawncare" The irony!!!!!!
Landscape and lawn Care business are VERY risky and fail alot that is why banks won't fund them. Sad to see they toss money at a loosing proposition just to say they funded something. What is next they fund a furniture or jewelry store? Why not fund Jenny Craig for this guy he needs it.
All most people need is the opportunity to succeed. The Rising Tide provides that opportunity. As a past president of the Rising Tide, all I can say is that the fastest way to fail is to never try. Those naysayers have already failed through their inability to see the benefit of providing hope and opportunity that The Rising Tide brings to our community.
The first two comments are ugly andsay more about the poster than the object of their venom.
Ask Jennings how much he pays his staff. No one can live on those wages but then again..they are mostly women so who cares.
