Brittany Maufort is a nonprofit executive, wildlife rehabilitator, and long-time animal lover
with a deep appreciation for wildlife and conservation. Her passion for animals has been
a constant throughout her life and ultimately led her to hands-on wildlife rehabilitation,
where she cares for injured and orphaned native wildlife and supports local
conservation and rehabilitation efforts.
Professionally, Brittany serves as Chief Financial Officer of a large Ohio-based nonprofit
organization, where she provides executive oversight of finance, compliance, risk
management, quality assurance, human resources, information technology, and
facilities. She brings more than 15 years of experience in strategic financial leadership
and operations, including senior roles with the State of Ohio. Her background supports
strong nonprofit governance, responsible stewardship of resources, and mission-aligned
decision-making in complex, regulated environments.
Through her rehabilitation work, Brittany has gained firsthand experience with the
challenges and responsibilities involved in wildlife care. She is particularly passionate
about evidence-based practices, ethical standards, continuing education, and
collaboration across the wildlife rehabilitation community. She values the role
organizations like the International Wildlife Rehabilitation Council play in supporting
rehabilitators, advancing professional standards, and strengthening public trust in
wildlife care.
A U.S. Army veteran and Ohio resident, Brittany is honored to serve on the IWRC Board
of Directors and to support the organization’s mission and long-term impact.
