Earl R. Wilson | A Legacy Of Hope Every dream fulfilled begins with someone who sees a need, imagines a solution and works tirelessly to bring that vision to life. For Methodist Rehabilitation Center, that dreamer and doer was Earl R. Wilson – the hospital’s founding chairman and member of the Board of Trustees for 25 years.
The Wilson Research Foundation is a 501(3) (c) nonprofit organization that serves as the hospital’s fundraising arm. The foundation was established in 1989 with a generous gift from the H.F. McCarty Jr. Family Foundation, to honor Earl Wilson, and his wife Martha Lyles Wilson’s service to physically disabled Mississippians.
Since 1989, the Wilson Foundation has contributed more than $1.7 million back to the hospital in support of its research program, focusing on the hospital’s Center for Neuroscience and Neurological Recovery (CNNR). The foundation also serves as the fundraising arm for the hospital’s unfunded needs including outreach and community programs, facilities and equipment and a patient care fund for those patients with no other payer source.
