Wylie Donaldson Jr.

Wylie Donaldson Jr. is the Vice President of the Odenton, Maryland Volunteer Fire Department and winner of the National Volunteer Fire Council’s Lifetime Achievement award. Donaldson joined the Odenton Fire Company in 1952 at the young age of 14. He followed in the footsteps of both his father, and his grandfather – who was a founding member of the Company. Throughout his career Donaldson has held every available position in his Company, from Chief, to President, to his current role as Vice President. Along with his continued dedication to his local Company, Donaldson is a leader in both the county and state firefighter’s associations.

One of Donaldson’s career projects was the development of a robust recruitment system for volunteers with the goal of high retention. Through his leadership and outreach, Donaldson acted as a beacon for those who felt a call to serve.
