Chairman Lee’s journey began in the coastal countryside of Chiayi County. With humble beginnings, he embarked on a solitary journey to Taipei, where he commenced his entrepreneurial endeavors from scratch. Now, with 46 years of dedicated commitment to business, Chairman Lee's ventures extend across diverse sectors including textiles, real estate, hospitality, electronics, machinery, ground services, and even rice mill. Beyond his corporate pursuits, Chairman Lee has remained steadfast in his dedication to social welfare. Embracing the ethos of "taking from society and giving back," he has partnered with his brother, Mr. Lee Liyu, former chairman of Taoyuan American School, for over three decades in charitable initiatives. Their endeavors extend beyond supporting rural education and aiding the underprivileged to actively enriching their hometown community. Each year, they contribute to numerous rural schools, provide financial assistance to the elderly in need, and award scholarships to deserving students. Additionally, they organize English camps, providing invaluable educational opportunities to underprivileged rural children. Inspired by his personal journey, Chairman Lee holds a profound belief in the boundless potential of every child. He envisions the Taoyuan American School as more than a mere institution for knowledge acquisition but as a nurturing environment fostering comprehensive development. This holistic approach encompasses cognitive growth, emotional intelligence, social responsibility, as well as artistic and athletic pursuits. Chairman Lee aspires for every student within the Taoyuan American School community to explore their passions and, through holistic education, emerge as resilient individuals ready to embrace life's challenges with courage. Upholding a commitment to integrity and societal contribution, he anticipates each graduate will carry forward the spirit of altruism, making meaningful contributions to society.
