We reached out to Wilbon Enterprises LLC, to assist our organization with applying for a grant. After our initial conversation, we were confident that we were in good hands. Although their offices were located out of state their ability to meet deadlines, respond to emails, and phone calls in a timely manner reduced our level of concern. With the assistance of Wilbon Enterprises LLC, we submitted a competitive grant and was awarded the grant. We look forward to a long-lasting relationship with Wilbon Enterprises LLC,
