As part of National Women’s Month, it’s worthwhile to highlight women serving causes and organizations that give back to women and girls in our neighborhood.
Today also happens to be International Women’s Day, and one local woman was put in Kimberly-Clark’s spotlight. Shonn Evans Brown has several roles serving young women across Dallas. This includes serving as immediate past chair of Texas Women’s Foundation in Lake Highlands and chair-elect of The Hockaday School in Preston Hollow.
Brown also serves in a regulatory and preventative legal role at Kimberly-Clark as Vice President and Deputy General Counsel for global litigation. There, she leads a team of attorneys and manages disputes against the company.
Texas Women’s Foundation isn’t Brown’s only connection to Lake Highlands, either. She’s a neighbor from Hamilton Park.
In Kimberly-Clark’s #BreakTheBias feature for International Women’s Day, Brown shouts out Hamilton Park for inspiring her toward collective progress and appreciating education.
“Even though a lot of us were not related by blood, because we shared experiences and history with families in that area, it created this ‘we all rise together’ mentality,” she says.
