Kimberly-Clark Donates NT$30 Million Worth of Product to the National Union of Taiwan Women Association TAIPEI, August 31 – Kimberly-Clark Taiwan today donated products worth NT$30 million to the National Union of Taiwan Women Association (NUTWA) during the inauguration of its Taiwan branch, to represent the company’s commitment to the people of Taiwan. The donation was received by Dagmar Yu, Chairman of the NUTWA, and witnessed by Annette Lu, Vice President of the Republic of China.

“ We recognize what the association is trying to do for local women’s groups,” said Ken Marshall, Chairman and Group Managing Director of Kimberly-Clark Taiwan. “Kimberly-Clark has a long-standing commitment to supporting mothers and children and strengthening families, and we are pleased to join NUTWA in addressing the many needs of these groups.”

“Kimberly-Clark is emblematic of the corporate citizens the NUTWA seeks out,” said Vice President Lu. “Its long history of working with women and children fits perfectly with our programs to provide vitally important assistance to these women’s groups. Together we have an extraordinary opportunity to change the lives of thousands of women for the better.”

According to Dagmar Yu, the idea of NUTWA was initiated by Vice President Annette Lu, an advocate of women’s self-realization through education, equality and empowerment. The association was established with the objectives of coordinating women’s groups in Taiwan, enhancing the exchange of resources and experiences so as to curtail the gap between large cities and rural areas.

Kimberly-Clark Taiwan’s donation will be used to provide these women’s groups with a wide range of support.
