Similar to our Family Office clients, who highly value philanthropy and charitable initiatives, Agreus takes pride in giving back to communities in need.
Every year we choose a charity from our local community and spend a day trying to make the lives of the people who run that charity, a little easier.
This year, our New York team showcased our commitment by spending a day delivering food bags to elderly and vulnerable households across the Lower East Side. As per advice, we contributed food, toiletries and household essentials to the value of what we would usually spend on Christmas cards and gifts.
While we were supporting charities within New York, our Co-Founder Tayyab Mohamed was making a difference much further afield.
Tayyab along with a few volunteers, spent the day visiting at least 50 families in Kerala who were selected by the local charity based on the severity of their recipients’ situations. The families who made this shortlist could not afford to eat three meals a day. Truly a dire situation in most cases consisting of vulnerable women, children, and families with terminally ill people unable to earn a living. The day was spent distributing food parcels and in doing so, we are told that the recipients could be fed for at least the next 30 days.
