Mr Louis Mak Law Mo

 

 

Mr Louis Mak Law Mo, President of the Lingdong Painting Society, is a passionate amateur painter, while at the same time a philanthropic businessman.

Mr Mak's involvement in community services and philanthropic activities dates back to as early as the late 1970s. He became the Second Vice President of the Lions Club of the New Territories, Hong Kong, when the Club was founded in 1977, and then became its President in 1979 and Zone VI Chairperson in 1980. He is now a director of the Club. Over the past three decades, Mr Mak has taken part in a wide range of charity works, from building schools and funding cataract surgery for disadvantaged elderly people in the Chinese mainland, to promoting anti-drug education among Hong Kong's young people. He is particularly keen on addressing the needs of the elderly in our community. With support from friends and sponsors, he has been organizing dinners since 2000 to pay respect to some 1,000 senior citizens every year.

While he loves painting, Mr Mak could not spend much time on it when he was young. Upon semi-retirement in 2000, he started learning Chinese painting again and is determined to channel his artistic talent into altruistic causes. In 2009, Mr Mak and his wife established the Louis Mak Charitable Foundation, which co-ordinates the donation of all proceeds from the sale of his paintings to charity. Organizations which have benefitted from Mr Mak's altruism include PolyU, Hong Kong Baptist University, Lions Club, Tzu Chi Foundation and Stand TALL Company Limited.
