Charity

AXS Chairman Silvia Badi Madden created the Argana Association for Human Development (AAHD). Silvia has been giving back for a long time to her family and everyone around her. She has instilled these values into our company.

We all knew from the start that AXS Argan Sports would give back to the community before it turned any profit. Every year, at least 4 times a year, AAHD holds charity events in Marrakech and, recently, Mumbai because of Silvia. Argan Sports gives a percentage of every sale to AAHD; in the beginning, Silvia funded all these events, with Argan following a couple of years after our start.

We’ve been very fortunate to partner up with great people and organizations. The Four Seasons-Marrakech has helped AAHD with donations to help fix one of the schools that hosted one of the Ramadans. We will do our best to help those around us and align ourselves with those who do the same.

AAHD Annual Ramadan

AAHD fed thousands of the less fortunate for the thirty nights of Ramadan. Every night meals were provided for the locals of Marrakech to break the fast. Each Ramadan a local school is picked to host the meals for Ramadan. The school Madrassa Al Waheda was used for the setting again this year and before (AAHD) left the school it was repaired and painted.

Mumbai Girls Home

Silvia spent time with young girls that were abandoned. She not only donated food and money to the home, but more importantly her time. She spoke with these young girls and let them know there is a bright future ahead for all of them with hard work and dedication.

MEDICAL SUPPORT

Although some people in this day in age no longer believe or do circumcisions. There are many that still do and some of them are the less fortunate who don’t have the means to do this. If the parents are going to do this, they should have the best doctors to perform such a procedure. (AAHD) payed qualified and professional doctors during this event to help 100’s of families who could not afford this. Also provided were gift baskets for every family that was present.

2013 Annual Ramadan

In 2013 (AAHD), again hosted thousands of the less fortunate and were fed for the thirty nights of Ramadan. Every night, meals were provided for the locals of Marrakech to break the fast. The new school being used this year for hosting Ramada was Madrassa Al Waheda, which was used for the setting. After Ramadan was finished (AAHD) left the school repaired and re painted.

2012 Annual Ramadan

This was the first year AAHD hosted Ramadan. For the 30 nights of Ramadan, we hosted thousands of the less fortunate.

Meals were provided to break the fast. The first school Ramadan was hosted was Madrassa Ben Khaldoun. After the 30 nights were completed, the school was cleaned and painted. This trend of giving has started and will continue to do so.
