Louis recently announced to Koo’s fans that his charitable foundation ‘Koo Tin Lok Charitable Trust’ has been officially established. Louis conveyed that the May 12th, 2008 earthquake in Sichuan inspired him to set up this charitable fund. The earthquake not only destroyed hundreds of thousands of people’s homes and separated tens of thousands families’ loved ones from each other but also damaged schools and crushed countless initially very joyful children. “It shattered my heart when seeing these with my own eyes, it also broke millions of Chinese people's hearts”, added Louis. Louis sets up this fund with hope to assist not only the victims of Sichuan Province but the unfortunate people around the world who are suffering. As Louis’ this year birthday wish, he hopes to lead Koo’s fans to do more good deeds and the establishment of this fund is the first step. Louis states that in the upcoming days, he will collaborate with other charitable groups to create many charitable activities for everyone to participate. The activities as community services will focus on the misfortune people and elderly. Louis hopes through this experience, Koo’s fans will realize how lucky we all are comparing to others who're everyday suffering and struggling just to have very basic things of life. He wants Koo’s fans to understand the cause of happiness and also the goal of doing good deeds since ‘Happiness is felt by making other people happy’. Louis also emphasizes Koo’s fans not to worry about the amount of money they donate because he knows most of Koo’s fans are still in school. He assures Koo’s fans that the sincerity of helping others is the most important and it will certainly be able to feel and touch. However, Louis definitely also looks forward to those who can afford to contribute more to the fund for efforts of helping others.
