Meet The People Who Turn Bold Visions Into Lasting Results
A Legacy of Giving, A Commitment to Community
Philanthropy is more than a tradition – it’s part of who we are. Our founder, Jim Wilson, Jr., was deeply committed to supporting the arts, education, athletics and health research. His spirit of generosity continues today as we continue to give back to our communities – donating land for the James W. Wilson Jr. Elementary School and the adjacent YMCA branch, supporting Tulane University and Huntingdon College and establishing the Montgomery Area Nontraditional Equestrians (MANE). Beyond donations, our team give their time to serve on the boards of nonprofit organizations and volunteer for local initiatives. Day in and day out, we believe in creating lasting value. Not just in business, but in the lives of the people and communities we serve.
