We Care, We Share

“Use your voice for kindness, your ears for compassion, your hands for charity, your mind for truth, and your heart for love.” – Unknown

Together with the ISDI community, we had the privilege of collaborating with the Indonesian Down Syndrome Society (ISDI) to commemorate World Down Syndrome Day at our office

This initiative aims to help revitalize the mangrove forest in Jakarta.

Today, celebrating the 2022 World Down’s Syndrome Day, we are proud to share a video of 32 talented young people with Down’s Syndrome from the ISDI dancing to a song by Meghan Trainor, “Better when I’m Dancing.” With this video, we hope to let the world know just how amazing they are and to continue to advocate for the rights of people with Down’s Syndrome.

We're partnering with World Law Group in a global Corporate Social Responsibility initiative.

“Disability is not a brave struggle or ‘courage in the face of adversity.’ Disability is an art. It’s an ingenious way to live.” ― Neil Marcus One of the values that Makarim & Taira S. (“M&T”) holds dearly is inclusivity – a recognition that everyone brings with them unique potentials and when given a chance, can contribute for the good of society.

To celebrate World Down's Syndrome Day 2020, M&T in collaboration with ISDI (Ikatan Sindroma Down Indonesia), engaged in various fun and educative activities with young Indonesian with Down's Syndrome. It was an amazing experience, to witness the creativity and determination that these special individuals have. Happy World Down's Syndrome Day!

M&T lawyers and staff, accompanied by the sub-district head of Kebon Jeruk, West Jakarta, planted trees around the district.

The first day of September became even more special for the Makarim & Taira S. (M&T) family as we organized a visit to Panti Asuhan Abigail – an orphanage in Pamulang, South Tangerang, and a home to over 50 children.

Last 6 December 2018, Makarim & Taira S. hosted a blood drive at our office where over 130 volunteers participated.

The response to M&T’s first blood drive in 2011 was so positive that we decided to make this a regular CSR activity,

M&T lawyers and staff released more than 200 baby turtles on Kuta beach, Bali, attracting much attention to the cause.
