As co-chair of this campaign, I have found Ron and his company’s professionalism, knowledge, and expertise to be exemplary. Fellow member Senator Catherine Miranda and I have no doubt that with the continued guidance of The Huddleston Group, our campaign will be a complete success and benefit many lives.”

“The work you have done in developing our foundation board and staff and in preparing us to move forward with our major and planned giving efforts has been exceptional and is deeply appreciated.

But with your help and guidance, we have made it tangible and the talk of the town; our board is forever thankful.”

For more than a year, Ron mentored us in establishing our endowment and planned giving program. We found him to be very knowledgeable and resourceful in his approach, often providing us with helpful tools and strategies. Ron also related well to both the Board members and staff who participated in the program who embraced his recommendations, many of which continue to be implemented at SARRC. I strongly recommend Ron as a consultant to non-profit organizations in the areas of major gift fundraising and planned giving."

“The Huddleston Group, specifically Ron Huddleston consulted the La Societe Francaise Bienfaisance Mutuelle (French Hospital Foundation) for 13 years in San Francisco, United Kingdom and France.

“We couldn’t be happier with our capital campaign! Every aspect of your service was first rate and professional. Your feasibility study was dead on. Our organization video that you produced has been enormously effective in presenting our case and mission to our various constituencies. Your board development workshop did wonders for orienting our board to their responsibilities while increasing their participation and enthusiasm. It was simply outstanding! Did I mention that we exceeded our campaign goal by $200,000!”

“I have very high regard for The Huddleston Group and everyone I’ve worked with at the firm over the years. They provided us guidance and collaborative leadership every step of the way. More than a consultant, they were our partners - all in all, working with Ron Huddleston was a completely positive experience for everyone involved with the Phoenix Indian Medical Center and American Indian Children’s Clinic Fund.”

“Ron Huddleston, President of The Huddleston Group walked our board and staff through the process of turning our dream into a reality with our first large campaign utilizing a consultant. Ron’s experience, honesty and knowledge provided us the framework we needed during the beginning stages of our integrated campaign. “

“I have worked with consultants for a decade, and have worked with numerous consulting firms. The Huddleston Group, especially Ron Huddleston, provided the discipline, focus, and hard work that we needed for our endowment building initiative to succeed. The Huddleston Group was a valued part of my leadership team and helped us to achieve our vision for many Phoenix nonprofit organizations. I appreciate the guidance, expertise, integrity, and scope of experience that The Huddleston Group has provided."

“During my 25 years with the YMCA, I have worked with many firms, both large and small, and The Huddleston Group is at the top of the list. Our $3 million capital campaign was one of the most difficult ones I’ve ever been involved in, but The Huddleston Group, and especially Ron Huddleston, stayed with us, gave us impeccable advice, challenged our boards and worked with our key donors in the most professional manner I’ve ever seen.

Their management of dayto-day campaign operations combined with providing informed, focused strategic guidance ensures that we not only have a solid plan, but that it will be expertly implemented.”

"Awesome Report! This is one of the best pieces work I have seen done in the nonprofit development world in a very long time. I have no idea how much it must of cost, but it is worth every dime. My suggestion: Put copies of The Huddleston Group’s Assessment in binders, distribute to all the board and committee members and one page at a time start checking off the reconciliation of comments, implementation of recommendations. The Huddleston Group’s Assessments Recommendations are spot on, and clearly can be used to the benefit of the foundation for years to come.”

“I am seventy-seven years young and for fifty of those years I have been involved in giving and raising millions of dollars for my special charitable organizations. I had the privilege of working with Ron Huddleston, on a $7.5 million dollar Salvation Army campaign in Phoenix, Arizona. I was the Chair of this Campaign and I must tell you it was a difficult task. Mr. Huddleston gave us impeccable advice and guidance so that we not only raised our goal - we exceeded it! I have worked with many development professionals and consultants and I must say Ron Huddleston was a breath of fresh air - his insights, knowledge, professionalism and straightforwardness were right on the money.”

“If were not for the management and commitment of The Huddleston Group and especially Ron Huddleston, its President, The French Foundation would have truly perished. Mr. Huddleston stayed with the Foundation during its most troubled times – when we affiliated with a major healthcare system that turned around and sold our facility. Before we knew it, the hospital we had owned and operated for 150 years was gone and so was our raison d’etre. The Huddleston Group guided and oversaw our legal battles to a prosperous outcome and gave us the creative insight to reformulate our Foundation into a prestigious International Volunteer Organization. In addition to managing the direction of our organization, they have also has raised more than 10 million in cash and endowments that will kept the organization solvent and secure for another 150 years.

“The Huddleston Group, headed by Ron Huddleston, its President, conducted one of the most precise and informative Development Audits I have ever seen. Their information was right on, their recommendations were sound, and their timetable was realistic. We were so impressed with the quality of the work and the commitment of the firm that we retained them to conduct our Executive Search for our Associate Administrator for Public Relations and Development. The candidates they presented were by far the best in the business, and had direct experience in situations similar to ours. We could have selected any of the candidates without interviewing them and they would have been able to handle our unique circumstances and fit in to our unique community. I have seen few consulting firms that take the time and make the commitment to the client that The Huddleston Group does. By far the best in the industry!”

“Scottsdale Memorial Hospital, now HonorHealth, engaged The Huddleston Group four times since to conduct a Development Audits. The Board and I wanted to know if the Scottsdale community would give more significant philanthropic support to our mission, and if we had the staff and expertise to go after it. Both these subjects were somewhat tricky and threatening, and I must say that the The Huddleston Group team was professional, proficient, and most of all, sensitive to the staff concerns regarding this Audit. Everyone was extremely impressed with Ron Huddleston’s thoroughness and audit results. The Huddleston Group has served us in an excellent, highly professional fashion. I would unequivocally recommend them to any nonprofit corporation conducting this type of sensitive study.”

“I had the pleasure to work with Alan Sherwood and Ron Huddleston on our $7 million capital campaign. Alan was extremely knowledgeable and guided our campaign to new levels reaching a total goal of $9 million. Their knowledge is extensive, and his ability to work with various diverse personalities is refreshing. I have found Alan and his company’s professionalism, knowledge, and expertise to be exemplary.”

"Alan's leadership kept our momentum strong, and Ron Huddleston's team delivered an outstanding feasibility study that laid the foundation for our success. Even when COVID-19 disrupted our plans, they remained fully committed, executing a comprehensive and strategic solicitation program with precision. Their dedication, organization, and responsiveness made every step of the process smooth, and we always felt supported with any questions or concerns we had. When we announce the final total, it won’t just surprise our local community—it will make an impact across the entire state. Their work has truly set us up for a remarkable achievement."

Ron and his team provided invaluable insights into our readiness and capacity for a capital campaign, and their strategic approach helped us identify key strengths and areas for growth. While we are determined not to move forward with a campaign at this time, the clear, thoughtful recommendations offered by The Huddleston Group have set the stage for future success. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any organization seeking strategic, results-driven consultation. Their professionalism and dedication have been invaluable to the City of Bedford.”
