Clients and Testimonials

Claire Hardy, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Move the World

''Would whole-heartedly recommend working with Wonu. She brings a wealth of expertise and a ton of personality to the work and the team. Wonu was able to join our team with very limited resources and pour herself into each waking moment for our small and mighty charity. She worked diligently to ensure our processes were in place and that grants were regularly going out and updated. We miss her (lots!) but so happy that we had the opportunity to work alongside her and learn from her. I would not hesitate for a moment to work with Wonu again - she's a diamond of a find.''

Jeffrey Woolverton, Former Chief Development Officer, International Consortium of Investigative Journalists

''Wonu is an absolute joy to work with! Recently, we collaborated on a donor mapping (prospect research) project to expand philanthropic support for investigative journalism in Europe. From the beginning, I was impressed with Wonu's professionalism and prompt responses to requests for information. Wonu was thorough and detailed in her deliverables and was generous with her time in explaining her key findings. I highly recommend working with Wonu, thank you!''

Helene Wolf, Co-Executive Director at FAIR SHARE of Women Leaders

''Wonu supported FAIR SHARE at a crucial time in our development to lay the groundwork for professional fundraising and cultivation. She is highly organised, professional, reliable and practively drives her work. And she is incredibly inspiring and fun to work with and her interactions with our entire team make a big difference how we approach our fundraising.''

Maggie Zelonis, Senior Development Officer, Women's Link Worldwide

"I am so glad that Women's Link worked with Wonu! She took the time to really understand our organization's mission, values, and work, which we saw that reflected in the well-aligned prospects she identified for us in two regional funding landscape scans. She presented her research and findings in a clear, very organized way that is easy to refer back to, which we greatly appreciate. I would highly recommend working with Wonu and hope to work with her again going forward."

Nadia Ahidjo, Former Director of Partnerships and Philanthropy, African Women's Development Fund

"It's rare to come across someone as motivated and enthusiastic as Wonu. She consistently went above and beyond to ensure to develop a key piece of work, while fully engaging the team to own the work and be able to meet their targets. Wonu's positive attitude and strong work ethic were contagious, and she brought fresh ideas to the table at a critical time for AWDF. I highly recommend her, and WOW Consulting for your resource mobilisation needs."

Sydney Gray, Principal, Gray Ink

''Wonu is a steady presence in the turbulent field of fundraising. I hired Wonu as a Senior Fundraising Consultant for Gray Ink, and she masterfully facilitated many of our clients’ growth in her time with us. Wonu’s knowledge & experience in fundraising globally is a particularly invaluable asset that not many people offer. She was particularly effective at building the trust she needed with clients to be able to work them through the barriers keeping them from bringing funding into the door. Her exceptional skills as a fundraising strategist & her ever-present good humor make her a pleasure to work with in any capacity.''

Lisa Heinert, Chief Operating Officer, Black Fox Global

''It’s been a true pleasure working with Wonu, who stands out as one of the top research and advancement talents in our sector. Her ability to combine a high-level strategic perspective with deep expertise in current trends is unmatched. Wonu’s diligent execution and thoughtful approach to research, outreach, and strategy have consistently delivered exceptional results. She is also a fantastic team player, bringing positive energy and valuable insights to every project, while always supporting her colleagues. Our Black Fox Global clients consistently rave about her work, and I have no doubt that she will continue to excel and inspire wherever she goes.''
