FoxG1 – Official launch Kimberly-Clark

In 2015 after months of setup, the FoxG1 foundation was announced publicly to the greater Kimberly-Clark company. This is when about 50 employees from the Milsons point office came together for a BBQ, and the Finance Director Tony Macmahon shared Kush’s story with the assembled audience. A story so shockingly painful that Vivek was unable to share a word then. Kushagra’s dad Vivek was working at Kimberly-Clark at that time and with Kush’s condition requiring lots of time spent working from Hospitals, the whole Finance team was very very helpful with the situation facing the family.

Vivek also reached out to the leadership team of Kimberly-Clark at both the local , regional and global levels and was guided very wisely from an exceptional leader Achal Agarwal then the president of the Asia region for Kimberly-Clark.
