In 2025, as Beyond The Finish Line with Star celebrated its first anniversary, a question was born:
“How can we move our stories from stories to impact?”
That question gave rise to the Athlete Impact Fund — an initiative designed to provide financial and developmental support to athletes facing real challenges. The fund focuses on enabling access to proper training, recovery, and education, helping young talents move from survival to success
Our first beneficiaries represent the spirit of courage and resilience that defines Paragon:
• 
Denzel Ngavi (Zimbabwe) – A 400m runner training on gravel, holding his country's high school record,
yet dreaming beyond his limitations. He received $1,000 to support recovery and
training resources.
