We are thrilled that Deanna Sedlak was recognized by The Triangle Nonprofit and Volunteer Leadership Center as Volunteer of The Week. Deanna has poured so much love, time, and energy into caring for our Ambassador Animals and educating the community on native wildlife. Thank you, Deanna!

From The Triangle Nonprofit & Volunteer Leadership Center:

“Deanna Sedlak began volunteering with Piedmont Wildlife Center (PWC) as an evening (PM) raptor care feeder. When she heard that the Center was in need, Deanna asked to be trained as an AM raptor care feeder, which is much more involved and time consuming. Because her Thursday evenings are devoted to training owls and hawks, she has been able to pick up and drop off PWC’s outreach animals at many events in Durham, Wake, and Chatham counties. She attended ten out of twenty outreach events in 2022 and is one of PWC’s most dedicated outreach volunteers. Deanna brings a sense of confidence, humor, willingness to learn and teach, and community every time she is at the Center or any of its events.”
