About EricDeborah’s Place had the pleasure of working with Eric Wilkerson and with Wilkerson +
Company in September/October 2023. W +C provided us with competent and comprehensive
services in implementing a retreat with our Board of Directors. The session was both informative
and engaging, and we could not be more pleased with the outcomes, thanks to Eric and his
team.
- CEO, Kathy Booton Wilson
During Ronald McDonald House's capital campaign feasibility study, Eric was able to source information from community members, philanthropists, and business leaders that truly shaped our ability to run a successful fundraising campaign for such a big project. In 16 short months, over $7 million has been pledged, putting us ahead of schedule on fundraising. We also utilized Eric’s services in leading our board’s strategic planning retreat during a critical point in our program expansion process. Highly recommend!
- CEO, Janell Mason
Gerber/Hart hired Eric to assess our operations, strategy, mission/vision, and approach to fundraising with an eye towards evolution to achieve our ambitious goals. A key takeaway that has already made a tremendous impact was an overhaul of our fundraising plan. With this new knowledge and framework that Eric and team helped us create, Gerber/Hart had our most successful fundraising year in our history.
- Board Chairs, Kevin Nunley + James
Eric has been an incredibly valuable resource for One Roof Chicago. He combines a comprehensive grasp of the nuts and bolts of annual giving, capital campaigns, and fundraising tools; a continual monitoring of donor priorities and emerging opportunities; and personal qualities of unflagging good humor, patience, and generosity. He prepared our board to become active partners in development, and we are continuing to use the materials and tools he prepared for us as our baseline in moving forward to project completion. We look forward to engaging him again.
