It’s financial planning month! Financial literacy isn’t just about budgets & credit cards—it’s key for big purchases too, like buying a car. Capital One's AutoNavigator is a game-changer - you can prequalify, pick a car, and lock in your monthly payments all online - without the haggling! The dealership visit? Just to pick up the keys and car! You can read all about Paula Paggi's car buying experience in our latest blog. #CarBuyingMadeEasy #FinanceLiteracy #AutoNavigator

"I don’t operate in isolation; rather, I work hand in hand with my colleagues, advocating tirelessly for safety." Ahead of #ConstructionInclusionWeek, McCarthy Building Companies, Inc.'s Cecia Saenz sat down with Bizwomen to share her experience as a woman in construction, and why her career is not the same as her father’s. #womeninconstruction #daladoesnews

Our quarterly team volunteer days are always a hit. This time we did something a little different and hit the trails at Arbor Hills Nature Preserve as a part of the City of Plano Parks for Pollinators Bioblitz. This project is part of a national effort to find and document pollinators and pollinator-friendly plants, identifying as many species as possible. Kind of like a scavenger hunt out in nature! Our highlights included a huge turtle and a very large snake (not pictured because it slithered away too fast). Take time to give back to your community - it’s worth it and great for #mentalhealth! #takeahike #dalagivesback #getoutside #teambuilding #cityofplano #givebacktothecommunity

#ClientAlert - Capital One's Operation Snack Pack was another smashing success! Capital One associates from Plano, Dallas, and various branches across the DFW area came together to contribute to this cause, raising $50K in partnership with North Texas Food Bank which has made a significant impact on local students' lives. Loved watching Clarice Tinsley's Here's To You segment to show how these associates are positively impacting the communities where they live and work, uniting to combat food insecurity and ensure children have access to nutritious food throughout the school week.   #CapitalOne #CommunityImpact #FightHunger #DFWCommunity #OperationSnackPack #DalaDoesPR #DalaDoesNews
