Testimonials
“The Pro-Bono Consulting team was dedicated, insightful and intentional with the work they completed during the spring semester. The final presentation was thorough, covered all aspects of the scope and provided relevant feedback and insights for CPG development. [The Project Leader] was an absolute rockstar at leading the team - managing communication throughout the entire process and managing presentation flow for each of our meetings.”
“The Board of Directors of Team Up Philly is so appreciative of the opportunity to work with the group of Wharton Women. The Wharton Women [Pro-Bono Consulting] team members took the time and energy to understand Team Up Philly’s mission and needs and acted like seasoned consultants from the beginning of the project through the final presentation. Their end product provides a treasure trove of information, resources, and ideas that will positively impact Team Up Philly for years to come.”

“I loved working with some of the students from Wharton Women on a recent pro-bono consulting project for my brand YOWIE. We are at a pivotal time in our business and the team was so thoughtful in their approach to developing a strategy on how to grow our business. The team presented many dynamic paths to increasing exposure, revenue and our customer base. We look forward to implementing some of the ideas presented in the upcoming months.”
