DONELLA WILSON
Partner
GHJ
Donella Wilson, CPA, leads GHJ’s Nonprofit Practice and serves as president and chief philanthropy officer of GHJ Foundation. Wilson works alongside many leading nonprofits and uses her influence as a trusted advisor to strengthen the nonprofit community. Wilson has driven significant growth and innovation by working alongside leading charities and foundations in Southern California, helping countless nonprofits achieve their financial goals and maximize their impact.
Wilson leverages her deep understanding of nonprofits to nurture GHJ’s culture of giving back and helped establish GHJ Foundation in 2020. In this role, she regularly advises her colleagues on how to give back to their community through volunteerism or board membership, amplifying the firm’s community impact. In 2023, GHJ Foundation began a partnership with Groundswell, a platform that replaces traditional employer-match programs and gives each GHJ employee access to firm-matching funds to donate directly to the causes they care about.
